Snapshot: Haiti Earthquake

World leaders pledged aid to rebuild Haiti after what the United Nations called one of the worst humanitarian crises in decades, but earthquake survivors were still waiting on Sunday for food, water and medicine.

NEWS

* Hundreds of thousands of hungry Haitians desperately wait for help, but logistical logjams keep major relief from reaching most victims.

* The United Nations say it is feeding 40,000 people a day and hopes to increase that to 1 million within two weeks.

* Thousands flee Port-au-Prince to escape aftershocks and threat of looting, and to find food, water and shelter.

* Scavengers and looters swarm over the wrecks of shops, carrying off anything they can find.

* Heavily armed gangs who once ran Haiti's largest slum have returned with a vengeance since the earthquake damaged a prison, allowing 3,000 inmates to break out.

* Rescue teams free a 7-year-old Haitian girl, a Haitian man and an American woman from the rubble of a five-story supermarket.
