An early morning 6.1-magnitude aftershock rumbled through the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince Wednesday, sending people fleeing into the streets as rescue crews continued their last-ditch efforts to find signs of life beneath the ruined city’s towers of rubble.
If perhaps momentarily deterred by the shaking, relief missions continued apace through the morning with aid workers distributing food and water to increasingly desperate residents, Israeli military doctors treating the sick and injured at a field hospital, and a rabbi from the neighboring capital of S. Domingo dispatching supplies and non-perishable foods by the truck full.
