Britons have donated £23m to the Haiti earthquake appeal, the Disasters and Emergency Committee (DEC) has said. Meanwhile, the UK government is to treble its funding for the humanitarian response from £6.2m to £20m, to provide food, shelter, health and relief work. Tens of thousands are feared dead after being crushed by buildings that collapsed. Scores more remain trapped under the rubble. The leading US general in Haiti, Ken Keen, said it was a "reasonable assumption" that up to 200,000 people may have died.
