Fouye - September 22 2008, 7:16 PM

Haiti is observing three days of mourning for the hurricane victims.

Haitian lags began flying at half-staff Monday all over the Republic of Haiti.

Haiti was hit by four storms and hurricanes consecutively: Fay, Gustav, Hanna, and Ike.

Most of the country, already poor, is in a state of crisis.

at least 800,000 people, about 10 percent of the Haitian population is in need of public assistance.
