Desperately needed aid from around the world slowly made its way Thursday into Haiti, where supply bottlenecks and a leadership vacuum left rescuers scrambling on their own to save the trapped and injured and get relief supplies into the capital.

The international Red Cross estimated that 45,000 to 50,000 people were killed in Tuesday's magnitude-7 earthquake. "We have already buried 7,000 in a mass grave," Haiti's president said.

President Barack Obama announced that "one of the largest relief efforts in our recent history" is moving toward Haiti, with thousands of troops and a broad array of civilian rescue workers flying or sailing in to aid the stricken country — backed by more than $100 million in relief funds.

To the Haitians, Obama promised: "You will not be forsaken."

The nascent flow of rescue workers showed some results: A newly arrived search team pulled a U.N. security worker alive from the organization's collapsed headquarters, where about 100 people are still trapped. He stood, held up a fist in celebration, and was helped off to a hospital.

But thousands of Haitians, living or dead, remained buried beneath collapsed buildings, leaving friends and relatives to claw at the wreckage, often with bare hands, in attempts to free them.

Many of those pulled out dead still lay in the street, often covered by a white cloth, in 81-degree heat. Some people dragged the dust-covered dead along the roads toward the morgue.

There, people came to hunt for relatives in a macabre sea of hundreds of bodies just a few feet where badly wounded quake victims sat awaiting a doctor from the neighboring hospital.

  • Madrid's recue team (firemen and trained dogs) has rescued 73 people alive from beneath the rubble; dogs became mad when arrived beacuse there were such an enormous amount of people alive waiting to be rescued. Our firemen worked for 48 hours without resting...hundreds are still trapped.

    The Pope has urged all Christians to help in the way they can, give money to ONGs, Caritas, Unicef, etc... you can also lead your help through your local church.

  • very emotional!! much respect

  • so sad

  • I thought it was great to see humanity come together to help the people in Haiti after this happened. Unfortunately, I feel after a couple weeks, everyone lost interest and these people continue to be left stranded.. left to pick up the pieces of this disaster with no help.

  • 2:01 ?????????
