Naturkatastrophe: Schweres Erdbeben erschüttert Kolumbien
Nachdem sich Venezuela bisher kaum von den Schäden und Verlusten des letzten Erdbebens erholt hat, wird die Region erneut erschüttert. Nun steht auch Kolumbien vor einer Belastungsprobe.
A powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck Colombia, resulting in over 110 fatalities, according to government officials. Rescue teams from Bogota and Medellin have been dispatched to help with the recovery efforts in cities like Cali, where at least 20 buildings collapsed. The quake's epicenter was located near the town of San Jose del Palmar in the coastal province of Choco. In the capital of Risaralda province, Pereira, buildings were reportedly damaged, with some facades collapsing and people injured.
