Colombia Oo Saddex Maalmood oo Baroor-diiqin Qaran Ku Dhawray Ka dib Dhulgariir Dilaa ah
Colombia waxay ku dhawray saddex maalmood oo baroor-diiqin qaran ka dib markii dhulgariir xooggan uu dilay in ka badan 200 qof, iyadoo kooxaha samatabbixinta ay la tartamayaan waqti si ay u heleen dadka ku xanniban burburka. Calanka ayaa la dejiyay badhtamaha tiirarka dhismayaasha rasmiga ah.
Dhulgariirka iyo Saamaynta Magaalooyinka
Dhulgariirkii Talaadadii ahaa ee baaxaddisu ahayd 7.4 ayaa ahaa midda ugu xooggan ee ku dhacda Colombia qarnigii la soo dhaafay. Wuxuu burburiyay dhismooyin waddooyinkana wuxuu viiyay galbeedka dalka, iyadoo in ka badan 100 gariir-follow ah la diiwaangeliyay galabnimadii Talaadadii.
Magaalooyinka ugu dhibku badnaa waxaa ka mid ah Cali, Pereira, Manizales iyo Quibdo. Qayb ka mid ah Hospital Universitario del Valle ee Cali ayaa dumay, taasoo dhakhaatiirtu ku khasbay inay bukaanka u raraan meel baarkin ah oo ay ku daweeyaan qaar banaanka.
Tirakoobka Dhibanayaasha iyo Cabashada Madaxweynaha
Dowladdii Colombia waxay sheegtay 2,595 dhaawac ah iyo 195 qof oo rasmi ah oo maqan, inkastoo xog-ururin bulsho ay soo jeedinayeen in tiro aan la garanayn u dhowdahay 4,000. Dhulgariirku wuxuu tijaabo goor hore u noqday Madaxweynaha Abelardo de la Espriella.
De la Espriella wuxuu xilka la wareegay saddex maalmood ka hor inta uusan dhulgariirku dhicin, wuxuuna ku dhawray xaalad degdeg ah isla markaana ballan qaaday inuu gargaar kiraha siin doono qoysaska guryahooda waayay.
Caawimaadaha Caalamiga ah iyo Dadaalka Bulshada
Qaybo ka mid ah nidaamka caafimaadka Colombia ayaa culeys weyn ku soo kordhay. Kunnaal oo Colombia ah ayaa kexay cunto, biyo iyo agab kale oo xasaasi ah ee xaafadaha dhibaataysan, halka safaf dheer ay ka samaysmeen xarumaha dhiig-bixinta.
Caawimaad caalami ah ayaa yimid: Maraykanku wuxuu ku dhawray $15.5m, Midowga Yurubna $2.3m, Mexico wuxuu bixiyay boqolaal shaqaale, El Salvador wuxuu diray laba diyaaradood oo 100 tan oo gargaar ah.
Colombia has declared three days of national mourning after a magnitude 7.4 earthquake, the strongest to strike the country in a century, killed more than 200 people and left thousands unaccounted for as rescue crews race against time.
A Century's Worst Quake Strikes Western Colombia
The magnitude 7.4 earthquake hit on Monday, flattening buildings and damaging roads across western Colombia, with more than 100 aftershocks recorded by Tuesday afternoon. The disaster is also an early test for President Abelardo de la Espriella, who took office just three days before the quake.
Government figures put the number of injured at 2,595 and the number officially missing at 195, although civilian-run databases suggested the number of people unaccounted for could be closer to 4,000.
Hardest-Hit Cities Face Devastation and Health System Strain
Crews worked through the night in the hardest-hit cities, including Cali, Pereira, Manizales and Quibdo. In Cali, entire neighbourhoods appeared flattened with piles of rubble where blocks of homes and apartment buildings once stood and cars crushed beneath concrete and fallen walls.
The earthquake has put parts of Colombia's health system under enormous strain. Part of the Hospital Universitario del Valle in Cali collapsed, forcing doctors to move patients into a parking lot and treat some people outside.
International Aid Arrives as Search Efforts Intensify
De la Espriella has declared a state of emergency and promised rent subsidies for families who lost their homes. International help has also started to arrive, with the United States announcing $15.5m in emergency aid and deploying urban search-and-rescue technical teams from Fairfax County, Virginia, and Los Angeles County, California.
The European Union has also pledged $2.3m, while Mexico has offered hundreds of search and health workers, and El Salvador said it would send two planes carrying 100 tonnes of aid. But for rescue crews, the immediate focus remains searching the rubble.
