BOHOL 7.2 EARTHQUAKE

The 7.2 earthquake which hit Bohol and nearby provinces has killed at least 90 people and destroyed buildings and centuries-old churches. More casualties are expected as rescuers sift through the fallen buildings and other debris. It is one of the worst disasters that visited the country since big waves or tsunami wrecked havoc in Southern Mindanao more than ten years ago and killed more than a thousand people.
