Salvaging their few belongings from one of Haiti's many tent cities, as Tropical Storm Isaac ravages the country.<br/> <br />Heavy rains and high winds have lashed Haiti's southern coast and flooded parts of the capital, Port au Prince.<br/> <br />Residents here - already homeless after a devastating earthquake killed hundreds of thousands two years ago - are particularly vulnerable.<br/> <br />Many apparently declined attempts to evacuate them, staying in their makeshift homes for fear they would be robbed, though children under eight were allowed to shelter at a UN office.<br/> <br />Outside the tent cities, people fared no better.<br/> <br />Government officials say a 10-year-old girl was killed when a wall fell on her and a woman crushed to death when a tree fell on her house.<br/> <br />This woman says the water destroyed everything she had. "I don't have any other place to go and I don't know what to do," she says.<br/> <br />There are now fears the flooding could reignite a cholera epidemic, which has already killed more than 7000 since the earthquake.<br/> <br />Heavy rains and mudslides also remain a threat in this desperately poor country, where many scrape by on less than $1 a day.
