has been reported by reporter on the scene


I am Glad they dug out that cat
that is in shock.
I posted that for Kaz.

So shocking , couldn't have happened at a worse time of day , poor people sleeping ~ going to be a vast death toll.

4,900 dead

It is a race to try to rescue
the many trapped under the building.

So many, now have no homes.

76 British Rescue Team and 4 search dogs
are on the way.

This is an awful tragedy,so many lost and there will e more,just awful.

Thousands of buildings collapsed, at around 4.15 in the morning, I dread to think how many people have died.

everyone working at the EBU, involved at the Eurovision Song Contest feels deepest sympathies for the turkish people right now, regarding the devastating earthquake

I posted that saved Cat photo for you.

but at least saved.
