According to the recent update, airport in Haiti has now become the central hub for the huge aid operation that is now finally under way. The Haitian government has handed over control of the entire facility to the American military, who are here in large numbers. US soldiers have started the tricky operation of controlling the massive amount of air traffic that is now flooding in, and aid agencies from across the globe are arriving minute by minute.
Though it is still incredibly disorganised, it’s great to see so many organisations and countries coming together to deliver aid at this time. Obviously it’s chaotic, but when people come together and they got a good purpose you can make some good things happen out of chaos, and I think that’s what’s happening right now, Capt Justin Doyle said.
But the fact remains that much of the aid – tents, blankets and medical supplies – is still sitting on the runway in Port-Au-Prince.
