Operation Unified Response

Operation Unified Response was a coordinated effort by U.S. military and government agencies to deliver emergency aid and restore essential services following the 2010 Haiti earthquake. The 7.0 magnitude quake devastated the country, causing widespread destruction, casualties, and a humanitarian crisis. The operation involved deploying ships, aircraft, and thousands of personnel to provide medical care, distribute supplies, and rebuild infrastructure. Its goal was to quickly assist Haiti in recovery, stabilize the situation, and help the country begin rebuilding its communities and services after the disaster.
