A powerful earthquake toppled buildings, schools and chemical plants Monday in central China, killing more than 8,700 people and trapping untold numbers in mounds of concrete, steel and earth in the country’s worst quake in three decades.(yahoo news)Buried teenagers struggled to break free from the rubble, “while others were crying out for help,” Xinhua said. Xinhua reported 8,533 people died in Sichuan alone and 216 others in three other provinces and the mega-city of Chongqing.(yahoo news) I feel that this earthquake was a disaster. People in china had no idea of an earthquake when they woke up that morning. The government should do all they can to help the victims and the victim’s families because these people are going through a lot. This earthquake killed a lot of what they owned. Now they have to go through more just to get back on their feet and back to the way they were living. Their lives will never be the same again.
