EARTHQUAKE IN SPAIN

Yesterday, at 5 pm there was an earhtquake in Spain, near the city of Lorca, in Murcia.
Every day tens of earthquakes of this magnitude are occurring all over the world, so nothing special here. There were lots of cracks in walls. Also an elderly institute and some hospitals had to be evacuated. Two hours later a much stronger and also shallow 5.2 aftershock occurred. There were damages in private houses, municipality buildings and historic places. Unfortunately, there were ten deads too. Authorities did all what they could to help the unfortunate Lorca people.

It all looks terrible. Such bad accidents happen and unfortunately nobody can avert them. We are very very sorry here in Poland.
