The 7.0 magnitude quake that struck Tuesday (yesterday) was the most powerful to hit the Caribbean nation in 200 years.
The temblor collapsed the presidential palace, ministries, homes, schools, monuments and the city's largest hospital.
The International Red Cross says up to 3 million people have been affected.
