The magnitude 6.8 earthquake is the deadliest the country has seen since 1960. Survivors camped in the streets the following nights, terrified that buildings would continue to collapse in the aftershocks. Search teams from Spain, Britain, and Qatar are joining efforts, working around the clock to find survivors.
