срочно!!!!! Killer wave Yesterday, the biggest earthquake in more than forty years occurred deep under the Indian Ocean. As a result, massive tsunamis followed with waves of up to 30 metres high, causing serious damage and deaths. Over ten countries were hit, but Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka and Thailand were hit the hardest. Tens of thousands of people have lost their lives, but the exact number is still unknown. Thousands are injured, thousands are missing and hundreds of thousands are now homeless. Some people still can't believe how they survived such a natural disaster. A survivor from Phuket, Thailand said, 'A Science teacher who was here on holiday warned us that a tsunami was coming. Thanks to him, by the time the wave arrived, we had evacuated the beach and had moved to higher ground. Unfortunately, others weren't as lucky. Wednesday, 13 January 2010 HAITI Hit by massive quake Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince, is in urgent need of help after yesterday's earthquake which completely destroyed the city. The 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit near the capital at 16:53 local time and it is the worst in 200 years. Nearly all the buildings have collapsed and thousands of residents and tourists are trapped under the rubble. By nightfall, survivors had rescued many people, but they had also found many lifeless bodies. Today, rescue teams from all over the world are arriving and will try to save as many people as they can. "The problem is not only the trapped people,' said a local official. "There are thousands of injured who are dying because there aren't enough doctors or medical supplies."
