  "account": "The heart-wrenching images and first estimates of the destruction caused by the 7.4 magnitude earthquake that shook Colombia must elicit the immediate and unconditional solidarity of the international community. The growing death toll, which in a few hours exceeded two hundred, is only the beginning of the difficult accounting of the tragedy. The number of missing persons remains indeterminate and the ruin of hundreds of buildings will make life very difficult for millions of Colombians for a long time.",
  "summary": "The country needs international solidarity and internal cohesion in the face of the challenge of the brutal Cali earthquake.",
