The tower of the Manizales cathedral, destroyed along with other buildings after the earthquake in Colombia
The 7.4 magnitude earthquake has shaken the west, one of the country's most touristic areas.
Causing more than 25 deaths and serious material damage, it has also affected at least seven airports, according to the Civil Aeronautics (Aerocivil), which in a second statement added the Alfonso Bonilla Aragón airport in Cali, to the six it had already notified: those in Pereira, Manizales, Quibdó, Armenia, Cartago and Buenaventura. “For safety reasons, air operations at these terminals remain suspended until structural damage to the infrastructure is assessed,” the agency said.
