Aerial footage shows the extent of destruction in Haiti following a powerful 7.2-magnitude earthquake. Saturday’s earthquake struck the south-western part of the country, almost razing some towns and triggering landslides that hampered rescue efforts in two of the hardest-hit communities. The death toll has climbed sharply, with at least 724 dead and 2,800 injured, according to the latest figures from Haiti’s office of civil protection. People in the Caribbean nation rushed into the streets to seek safety and to help rescue those trapped in the rubble of collapsed homes, hotels and other buildings.

16 Americans and 1 Canadian citizen on a missionary visit were kidnapped near Port Au Prince while visiting an orphanage. Armed gangs are believed to control about half the city, with killings and kidnappings on the rise since Haiti's president was assassinated in July.

(9 Aug 2022)
RESTRICTION SUMMARY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jean-Rabel - 4 August 2022

HEADLINE: WFP helps tackle Haiti food insecurity
ANNOTATION: The Word Food Programme says more than a million Haitians
risk falling into famine.
2. Line of people moving

4. Close of feet of people in line
5. Mid of people waiting
ANNOTATION: In Jean-Rabel, people walk for hours to join the line for food donations.
6. Marie Gracie Joseph (wearing white top) picking up can of beans
7. SOUNDBITE (Haitian Creole) Marie Gracie Joseph, farmer:
"We did not have any money, and we had to go to someone else's house to borrow it. With this food, we don't need to borrow. We suffered from hunger, and this food will help."
8. Various of people loading sacks of food on donkeys

Gonaives - 3 August 2022
9. World Food Programme warehouse with piles of sacks of rice
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Jean Martin Bauer, director of the World Food Programme in Haiti:
"Gangs control large areas of Port-au-Prince, and they control the exits of Port-au-Prince through Martissant, the road leading east to the Dominican Republic and the road leading north to Gonaives and Au Cap (Cap-Haïtien). This is causing problems with food markets, with livelihoods and with food security."
11. People queuing to receive food donations
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jean-Rabel - 4 August 2022
12. Various of people walking away, some pulling donkeys loaded with food donations
ANNOTATION: These factors, plus the unravelling of the political situation since the assassination of former president Jovenel Moise in 2021 and the increased violence in the capital, put Haiti close to the top of the list of food insecurity.
STORYLINE:
More than one million people are at risk of falling into famine in Haiti according to the World Food Programme, as the UN agency's donations brought respite to a drought-stricken town in the country's northwest.
In Jean-Rabel, farmer Marie Gracie Joseph says the supplies including rice, beans and cooking oil will help to support her family after the steady searing heat destroyed her crops.
"Sometimes we did not have any money and we had to go to someone else's house to borrow it. With this food we don't need to borrow," she said.
For Marie Grace it was an hour, but some from the community surrounding Jean-Rabel walked for five hours to collect their share of the donations.
According to the WFP, 1.3 million Haitians are under food emergency, a situation made worse by the widespread violence in Port-au-Prince where gangs have taken control of large parts of the capital.
Gang violence has made it impossible for donations to reach parts of the capital itself and parts of the country that have come to depend on those donations, explained Jean Martin Bauer, the director of the WFP in Haiti.
Traders have had to obtain supplies from other regions of the country or resort to imported products to ensure the availability of basic foodstuffs that most can't afford to buy.
According to the WFP, households have large food consumption deficits reflected in very high acute malnutrition and excess mortality.
For years Haiti has suffered with environmental problems as well as exposure to natural disasters like hurricanes and earthquakes of which Haiti had too many in the last decade.

Three people a day are being kidnapped in Haiti – more than double the rate in 2021 – as hundreds of armed gangs vie for control of the Caribbean country.
Violence is escalating, with gangs dismembering bodies, beheading rivals, raping women, and killing minors accused of being informants.
The president’s assassination one year ago ushered in a new wave of terror and the country remains in a political gridlock with elections delayed indefinitely.
Homes have been burnt to the ground with residents still inside, hospitals have been forced to close as doctors are bundled into vans during their commute, and parents have stopped sending their children to school.
Over the past year, armed gangs have enforced major roadblocks, cutting off access to food and isolating 3.8 million people living in the south.
Haiti already had one of the highest levels of hunger in the world, with 4.5 million experiencing high levels of acute food insecurity.
Now, the World Food Programme has warned that deteriorating security and rising costs will push thousands more into desperate situations.
Haiti, it said, has become lost in the noise.

In Haiti, police say they have arrested one of the masterminds behind the assassination of president Jovenel Moise. Moise was gunned down at his home last week. Officials suspect that the arrested man wanted to oust the president and take over himself as head of the country.
Police have identified the suspect as a Haitian national. Other reports say the man was US resident.
Police had already arrested a number of Haitians and Columbians suspected of being part of the assassination unit responsible for last week’s killing of President Jovenel Moise. But many questions remain.
A team of US agents arrived in Haiti on Sunday, meeting with central members of Haiti's government.
Church leaders on Sunday asked for calm and told people to remain strong.
Moise’s assassination has created a power vacuum and confusion over who is Haiti’s legitimate leader.
Haiti was in bad shape before the president’s assassination. It’s plagued by gang violence and corruption. And Haitians live in crushing poverty.
Quiet streets in the capital Port au Prince on Sunday mark a contrast to the ongoing political turmoil.
