'It felt really strong. Each aftershock is frightening. We feel it right here (pointing at his stomach) because after last Tuesday you never know how strong it is going to be,' said Lenis Batiste, camped out on some grass with two children.

'It kind of felt like standing on a board on top of a ball,' said US Army Staff Sgt Steven Payne who was preparing to hand out food to refugees in a tent camp of 25,000 when the aftershock hit. The new quake struck about 35 miles north-west of the capital of Port-au-Prince at a depth of 13.7 miles.

Seems to be a mountain ridge going across this area that is bringing all the quakes.
