Rescuers in Colombia are searching for survivors after a 7.4-magnitude earthquake hits the country on Monday. Reports say teams are working urgently at damaged sites, where the chance of finding people alive is believed to be decreasing as time passes.
Across outlets, rescuers call for silence around earthquake rubble to improve the ability to hear signs of life, such as voices or tapping, from trapped people. The emphasis is on continuing searches despite difficult conditions at collapsed structures. While the coverage focuses on the same overarching response effort, sources differ mainly in wording and the level of detail beyond the central message that crews are operating against a shrinking survival window.
The accounts collectively highlight an emergency search-and-rescue effort in the immediate aftermath of the quake, with attention on methods that may help locate survivors trapped under debris. Further details about casualties and specific locations are not provided in the shared excerpts.
