  1. Last Tuesday 15th October 2013, a earthquake has ocurred in Philippines. The epicentre was Bohol and the quake's magnitude was 7'1. The earthquake has provoked a lot of building collapses and 161 died persons in Bohol, Cebu and Siquijor. The access to the islands was very difficult so was very difficult to help the victims too. Surgeors had to operate open air. Some boats moved injured people to come to the hospitals and some helicopters sent food to the victims. People shelter in government-run shelters, public buildings and tents. Politicians and mass media report all new news of the earthquake.

  2. Last week on 17th October, 2013, a powerful earthquake hit Bohol island, in Philippines. The earthquake, whose magnitude was 7.1, made to cut main roads and the patients who needed to be operated, had to wait because in the hospitals there weren´t beds for them. Now, people still missing because rescue workers maybe can´t find them, but also there are a lot of survivors injured. Apart of this, the earthquake, had collapsed buildings like monuments, churches or houses, and people who had lost their homes, must sleep in tents.
    One hundred people died, more or less, and there are about five hundreds injured survivors.

    2. There was a terrible eathquark in Filipinas, country that because of its geographical position in the Ring of Fire (Pacific Ocean) suffer a lot of eathquarks and a lot of volcanic eruptions. In this case the places more affected were Bohol and Cebu. But all country were destruyed. It happened last week on 17th October 2013.

      The search party worked very hard because a lot of people were missing and were trapped in the rubbles. And the people were safe must be attended by the hospitals that weren´t giving a vast. The affected people were complaining the slowness of the emergency party, but they did what could while the hospitals were crowed and the doctors atended the people in the street or in a lodgins of the government.

      Finally, at last the missing, the search party didn´t find all victims and they worked more hard. The houses and the churches are destruyed. People are worried because they don´t know what do from now.

  6. A terrible earthquake has occurred in Philippines last week. It claimed 161 lives and it destroyed lot of old buildings and house.

    For emergency teams the main difficult aspect was the accessibility and the survivors waited under the rocks and the people killed.

    Finally the earthquake was a big disaster because there were many killed and because it destroyed the country`s top tourist destinations, for example: "Chocolate Hills" and tiny primates called tarsiers

    The 7´1 magnitud quake destroyed a lot of buildings. The quake happened in the island of Bohol. There were 161 deads. Ten of thousands of survivors had taken refuge at government-run shelters in public building left standing on Bohol. Patients waited to be opereted on in the parking because the hospital was overthrow. Then the acess to the island was very difficult.

  9. Last Tuesday, at Philippines, there was a horrible esarthquake. This natural disaster killed more than 100 people and destroyed a lot buildings.
    The epicentre of the earthquake was located in the island of Bohol. All the cities near the epicentre suffered the most important damages but also the other cities were affected. The people that lived at this cities were evacuated to special centres in other to make easy the job of the emergency crews.
    This earthquake happenned because the Philippines are situated at the called Ring of Fire, a very active zone of faults, where thousands of earthquakes happened every year.

  11. There was a powerful earthquake at Philippines, a cause of this, al least 161 people died, there were some landslides and a lot of buildings were destroyed.
    At the island of Bohol, 6500 survivors must sleep in tents and in public buildings, because the earthquake destroyed their homes. Nearly all the fatalities were recorded on Bohol, one of the country's top tourist destinations.
    Unfortunately, this type of natural disasters often appears, because this group of islands are next to the "Ring of Fire", a zone in the Pacific ocean with a lot of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions happen.

  12. A terrible earthquake of 7.1 magnitude happened in Philippines. It happened thursday 18th october. In this terrible natural disaster have died 161 people.

    When the earthquake happened a lot of people were survivors of this tragedy. People hadn't their home because the earthquake destroyed them. They hadn't anything for eat and some rescue teams fed them. There were hurt people too and surgeons have saved the hurt people's life working.
    This natural disaster have destroyed a lot of buildings and because of this the principal highways were cut and no one could pass because there were a lot of aftershoks.

    This type of natural disasters regulary pass here because Philippines is located in the called "ring of fire" where a lot of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and other natural desasters happen there.
