Earthquake in New Zealand


An earthquake with the magnitude of 6.3 hit Christchurch, New Zealand, one of the country’s biggest cities, on Tuesday, Feb. 22 New Zealand time and Monday, Feb. 21 Hawaii time. More than 100 people were thought to be trapped in the rubble as darkness—and drizzling rain—fell Tuesday night. Power and telephone lines were knocked out, pipes burst flooding the streets with water, cars parked on the street were buried under rubble, the airport was closed and the Christchurch Hospital was briefly evacuated before reopening. During hours of chaos in the city, people dug through rubble with their hands to free people trapped. Firefighters climbed extension ladders to pluck people stranded on roofs to safety. Smoke drifted into the air at several points around the city from fires burning in the rubble. (Photo courtesy of Associated Press)
