On January 12, 2010, a catastrophic magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti, with its epicenter just 16 miles west of the capital city of Port-au-Prince. The powerful tremors lasted for around 35 seconds, causing widespread devastation and loss of life. Poorly constructed buildings collapsed, burying countless victims under the rubble. Official estimates indicate that over 300,000 people were killed, and more than 1.5 million were left homeless.

The quake crippled the already fragile infrastructure of Haiti, one of the poorest nations in the Western Hemisphere. Hospitals, schools, and government buildings were reduced to ruins, leaving the country ill-equipped to handle the overwhelming humanitarian crisis that followed. Rescue and relief efforts were hampered by the sheer scale of the disaster, a lack of resources, and the logistical challenges posed by the damage to transportation routes.

The 2010 Haiti earthquake was a catastrophe of historic proportions, leaving deep scars on the nation and its people. The road to recovery was long and arduous, with many Haitians still struggling to rebuild their lives years after the devastating quake. The tragedy highlighted the vulnerability of developing nations to natural disasters and the need for improved disaster preparedness and resilient infrastructure.
