At 8:29:09 a.m. EDT on 14 August 2021, a magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck the Tiburon Peninsula in the Caribbean nation of Haiti on the island of Hispaniola.[1] The earthquake struck with a 10-kilometre (6.2 mi; 5.4 nmi) deep hypocenter near Petit-Trou-de-Nippes, approximately 150 kilometres (93 mi; 81 nmi) west of the capital, Port-au-Prince.[4][5] The strong earthquake spawned tsunami warnings for the Haitian coast, which were lifted shortly after.[5] The US Geological Survey estimates "high casualties" and widespread disaster.[6] With the number of casualties currently estimated at 304,[7] this is currently the deadliest earthquake of 2021, and the deadliest such event worldwide since the 2018 Sulawesi earthquake
