Haiti was hit by a deadly earthquake today. Geological Survey said the earthquake was the most powerful in Haiti in more than a century. Several bodies were pulled from the wreckage of the U.N. building which colapsed completly and more than 100 staff members were missing, a spokesman said.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive told Reuters that he believed there could be “in the range of thousands of dead.” Soon after, Bellerive told CNN he believed well over 100,000 people could have died.<\/p>\n

President Rene Preval called the damage “unimaginable” and described stepping over dead bodies and hearing the cries of those trapped in the collapsed Parliament building, where the senate president was among those pinned by debris.<\/p>\n

Destruction in the capital was “massive and broad,” and tens — if not hundreds — of thousands of homes were destroyed, a spokesman for the U.N. mission said.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Please take me out, I am dying. I have two children with me,” a woman told a Reuters journalist from under a collapsed kindergarten in the Canape-Vert area of the capital.<\/p>\n

The presidential palace lay in ruins, its domes fallen on top of flattened walls. Preval and his wife were not inside when the quake hit.<\/p>\n
