I took this picture from the AolNews.com web site on March 2th, 2010. This is a picture of S
outh America. It is in Chile. In this photo seen a street destroyed by an earthquake. I seen ruined houses, the streets flooded with water.
I'm makes me very sad. It is a catastrophe that don't controlled.
PIECE OF NEWS SUMMARY:
The tsunami came in three waves, surging 200 meters (yards) into thisPacific Ocean resort town and dragging away the bus they'd piled into, hoping to get to high ground. Most of those inside were the retired Chileans, and only five of their bodies had been found by Monday, firefighters and witnesses said.
Pelluhue's horror underscored the destruction wrought by Saturday's pre-dawn 8.8-magnitude quake, which killed nearly 800 people and set off spates of looting in shattered towns without food, water or electricity.
Survivors here found about 20 bodies, and an estimated 300 homes were destroyed. Most residents were aware of the tsunami threat; street signs pointed to the nearest tsunami evacuation route. The ruins of homes, television sets, clothes, dishwashers and dead fish cover the town's black sand beaches.
President Michelle Bachelet said 14,000 soldiers and marines were deployed for security across the region and authorities began handing out packages of food and water in the disaster zone.
