On 12 January 2010, a catastrophic earthquake struck Haiti, wreaking havoc on the nation's capital, Port-au-Prince, and claiming the lives of approximately 160,000 people.
The 7.0 magnitude quake led to widespread destruction, reducing much of the city's infrastructure to rubble and leaving countless residents homeless and in desperate need of aid.
The aftermath of this tragedy saw an outpouring of international support, but the recovery has been slow and fraught with challenges, highlighting the vulnerabilities of the island nation to natural disasters.
