Colombia launches reconstruction fund after quake
Colombian President Áblderdo de Espría pledged to establish an emergency fund to rebuild the areas devastated by the earthquake that struck the country on Monday, resulting in 265 deaths and around 500 people missing. He also declared a state of economic emergency to address the damages, as rescue efforts continue to search for survivors amid declining chances of finding anyone alive after three days since the disaster. The earthquake has caused injuries to 3,770 people and the destruction of over 9,500 homes. The government is coordinating international aid that has begun arriving from neighboring countries.
