HaitiQuake


A horrible 35 second-lasting earthquake struck Haiti on January 12th. It Three of the many aftershocks were of magnitude 5. The largest one was of magnitude 7. Two days later, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake strucked them again. Chaos is running on haiti. A man that was buried under layers of stones called his wife on the phone so she would save him. He did not know where he was, the only thing he could move was his arms. Unfortunately, a couple hours later, he wouldn't answer his phone so he is considered dead. Celebrities are giving benefit concert to raise money that they will later on send to Haiti.Not only Haiti is a poor country, but everything is destroyed. People are starving, they fare suffering from the loss of the loved ones. They have been working for decades to be where they are, but unfortunately all their effort has been destroyed in a couple of minutes.
