“Rescue workers and volunteers desperately searched collapsed buildings for survivors on Sunday in the aftermath of one of the most powerful earthquakes to hit Haiti. Officials raised the confirmed death toll to more than 700 killed,” the New York Times reports.
“A magnitude 7.2 earthquake shook Haiti on Saturday morning, a devastating blow to a country that is still reeling from a presidential assassination last month and that never recovered from a disastrous quake more than 11 years ago.”
