  "account": "Colombia is still counting its dead. The country woke up on Tuesday under a state of national emergency, after a 7.4 magnitude earthquake shook the west of the country for four endless minutes the previous day, and was felt as far away as Panama and Ecuador. The aftershocks of the tremor – the largest in magnitude since 1979 – have so far left more than a hundred dead and more than 500 injured, with dozens of buildings completely collapsed. At least 132 people have died, according to the latest report from the Colombian Association of Capital Cities (Asocapitales). The figures are still considered preliminary.",
