Survivor Search Wanes Post-Colombia Quake
Rescue teams in western Colombia continue their search for survivors of the earthquake that struck the region five days ago with a magnitude of 7.4. Hope of finding more survivors has diminished after numerous bodies were recovered. The earthquake has resulted in over 294 deaths and about 4,000 injuries, with 320 people still missing. It caused extensive damage to buildings and infrastructure across an area stretching from the Buenaventura port to coffee-growing regions and major cities. The rescue operations are shifting from searching for survivors to recovering bodies, amid criticism of the government's handling of the early hours of the disaster. Meanwhile, President De La Espra and international support persist in efforts for reconstruction.
