15 Haitian children die in a fire at an orphanage in Fermathe

13 of the unfortunate little ones were rushed to the hospital but they all died as a result of respiratory failure linked to the inhalation of smoke from the fire, said Robenty Jean François, head of civil protection at Kenscoff, told the media Friday.

The two other children, one with a disability and the other suffering from a mental deficiency, died in the fire at the orphanage of Eglise de la compréhension de la Bible in Fermathe.
