About a week after an earthquake that has left more than 2,000 people dead, Haiti is still reeling and aid groups are struggling to respond.
NPR reports that Aid agencies say they're trying to get aid to the quake zone as quickly as possible. But roads were blocked by the quake, a key highway is controlled by gangs — and then Tropical Storm Grace hit earlier this week.
Below are some of the situations in picture
