Colombia: la Cruz Roja moviliza una respuesta nacional tras terremoto de magnitud 7,4 que deja al menos 120 muertos | IFRC
The IFRC reported through ReliefWeb on August 11 that the Colombian Red Cross had mobilised a nationwide response after the magnitude-7.4 earthquake. The move shows that the emergency extends beyond individual urban centres. National coordination is particularly important because damaged infrastructure, disrupted transport and communications, and continuing searches for people trapped under rubble are complicating access to affected communities.
