Current Affairs Czech aid to quake-stricken Haiti underway
The magnitude-seven earthquake that struck the Caribbean state of Haiti on Tuesday is threatening to become one of the worst natural disasters in recent memory, with death tolls estimated between tens and hundreds of thousands. Thousands of more people remain buried in the rubble. There is little water and a tragic scarcity of other resources that survivors need; understandably most are under extreme emotional and physical strain. As the gravity of the situation has grown clear, Czech charity organisations and the state have begun organising their response.
