TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARThe Guardian:
The United Nations secretary-general, Ban Ki-moon, today described the situation in Haiti as the worst humanitarian crisis in decades, as aid agencies raced to tackle the latest problem of the unfolding disaster: a lack of clean water.
“The damage, destruction, loss of life is just overwhelming,” Ban said as he boarded a flight for Port-au-Prince.
Concerns about security continued and police shot and killed one man who was attempting to take market produce, according to AFP.
