Guest Zayit Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - A powerful 7.6-magnitude earthquake near the Pakistan-India border Saturday reduced villages to rubble, triggered landslides and flattened an apartment building, killing hundreds of people in both nations. Pakistan's army called the devastation ``a national tragedy.'' In the capitals of Pakistan, India and Afghanistan, buildings shook and walls swayed for about a minute, and panicked people ran from their homes and offices. Tremors continued for hours afterward. Communications throughout the region were cut. Pakistan's Geo television quoted chief army spokesman Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan as saying 1,000 people were feared dead. Army officials who flew over quake-hit areas reported seeing hundreds of flattened homes in villages north of the capital, Islamabad. ``The damage and casualties could be massive and it is a national tragedy,'' Sultan told The Associated Press. ``This is the worst earthquake in recent times.'' http://www.guardian.co.uk/worldlatest/stor...5330426,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday huge earthquakes. Natural disasters are speeding up as the Bible prophesies. I am not a doomsdayer but it does seem the end of this age is close at hand. Prayers need to go out to these regions. There are thousands of hurting people who need them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything happens for a reason though, according to God's plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe God will force them to work together on recovery efforts. That would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
