True, but it said the aircraft was delivering supplies. Did the helicopter drop the supplies on the people on the ground? Original report this morning said 30 were injured...later said 1 died and 3 were injured. Maybe just the horror of the situation.

Found this link that is trying to keep up with the relief effort....It sounds like there still aren't enough helicopters to get water and food to where it is needed. It's bad enough not to have the equipment needed to dig people from the rubble, but horrible not to be able to save from death by lack of water and food...especially when both are already in country.
