Rescue workers and volunteers rushed to clear rubble as they searched for survivors in Colombia Tuesday after the country was struck by its strongest earthquake on record.
The 7.4-magnitude quake struck cities across Colombia’s western region shortly after 7:30 a.m. local time Monday, sending panicked residents onto the streets.
Around 1,600 buildings across the country were reported damaged or collapsed, with rescue workers and volunteers seen clearing rubble by hand in some places.
