Effects of Hurricane Dennis in Haiti
[edit]
Hurricane Dennis over the Jamaica Channel on July 7, 2005
- ... that Hurricane Dennis in 2005 killed 56 people and wrought US$50 million in damage throughout Haiti?
ALT1:... that in July 2005, the European Commission donated funds to Haiti for the effects of drought and Hurricane Dennis?- Comment: First blurb is a generic damage summary, the main interest of the article, while the alt blurb offers a specific aspect for a less mundane addition (suggested by Juliancolton).

This article is new enough and long enough. Striking ALT1 because it mentions a single donor whereas in reality, many donors were involved. The hook facts have inline citations though I could not verify the US$50 million figure. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and I did not detect any close paraphrasing.
