Salvadoran quake toll rises as rescuers search ravine
Salvadorans in the United States prepared to bury victims amid a massive quake that struck El Salvador. The government says losses exceed 1 billion dollars, about half the nation’s annual output. Bodies are still being recovered amid landslides, with many victims believed buried in remote mountain debris. Helicopters airlift rescuers to crater floors as officials faced an uncertain toll. Evacuations and blocked villages complicate recovery efforts.
