Скачать или смотреть Haiti Earthquake: Dominican food aid distribution

United Nations, New York, 19 January 2010 - Dominican aid workers, under the watchful eye of Peruvian peacekeepers, carried on a food distribution operation today (19 January) one week since a terrifying earthquake hit the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.

Dominican aid was the first to arrive after the earthquake hit last Tuesday and has been steadily flowing to crowds desperate for help.

The aid includes mobile kitchens and food rations as well as heavy machinery and medical aid. Many of the injured have been transported to hospitals in the Dominican Republic.

The outpouring of aid has helped ease historical tensions dating back to colonial times between these two Nations which share the Caribbean island of Hispaniola.
