It's terrifying to think what natural disasters can do let alone man made ones. I hope they manage to get the survivors out safely.

house strength quality is a lot less there than in our countries tbh, i think to prevent this from happening again they would need to reinforce their homes with stronger building materials


so sad how so many people lose their lives, and many others lose their homes in tragedies like this
