A ruined street in the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince appeared much the same on September 30, 2010, (bottom) as it did seven months earlier—shortly after the devastatingHaiti earthquakeon January 12, 2010, which the local government estimates killed more than 220,000 people.
The magnitude 7.0 temblor destroyed more than 97,000 homes and damaged more than 188,000 structures, displacing 1.3 million people.
