Unicef: Situation in Haiti is “horrible” and “almost out of a scene from Mad Max” “Many, many people are seriously suffering from hunger and malnutrition, and we are unable to provide them with enough help,” said Catherine Russell, executive director of Unicef. The UN has evacuated its non-essential staff and several countries have done the same with their diplomatic staff.

The United States also announced on Monday that it had taken more than 30 American nationals out of the country aboard a charter flight chartered by the government.
