4.9 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Haiti, Kills Three Amid Deadly Floods

A 4.9 magnitude earthquake hit near Jeremie in southern Haiti, leaving three people dead and several injured after a house collapse.
The earthquake struck at a depth of six miles and comes as Haiti struggles to recover from heavy floods over the weekend that killed at least 45 people.
Weak infrastructure in Haiti has made the island vulnerable to natural disasters like earthquakes and floods.
Rescue workers were searching collapsed buildings for more victims after the deadly quake.
The earthquake is the latest in a series of tremors to hit the region this year and brings devastation to a country still recovering from a catastrophic 2010 quake that killed over 200,000 people.
