A massive earthquake has hit the coast of Chile, killing dozens of people,
flattening buildings and triggering a tsunami.
The 8.8-magnitude quake, the countrys largest in 25 years, shook the
capital Santiago for a minute and half at 3:34am (6:34am GMT) today.
A tsunami warning has been extended across 53 countries, including most of
Central and South America and as far as Australia, Hawaii and Antarctica.
The wave has already caused serious damage to the sparsely populated Juan
Fernandez islands, off the Santiago coast, and is now travelling across
the ocean at several hundred km per hour.
The death toll in Chile has reached 78 and is still rising according to
President Michelle Bachelet, who has declared a state of catastrophe in
the country.
Calling for calm from an emergency response centre, the outgoing president
said: We have had a huge earthquake, with some aftershocks.
Despite this, the system is functioning. People should remain calm. Were
doing everything we can with all the forces we have. Any information we
will share immediately.
The quake hit near the town of Maule, 200 miles southwest of Santiago, at
a depth of 22 miles underground.
The epicentre was just 70 miles from Concepcion, Chiles second-largest
city, where more than 200,000 people live along the Bio Bio river.
In Santiago buildings collapsed and phone lines and electricity were
brought down, but the full extent of the damage is still being determined.
Santiago airport has been shut down and will remain closed for at least
the next 24 hours after the passenger terminal suffered major damage.
Chilean television is showing images of destroyed buildings and damaged
cars, with rubble-strewn streets.
