More than 20 children dead after school collapses during Mexico quake

Save the Children Mexico’s Programs Coordinator Hanna Monsivais said she has been out on the streets with hundreds of other people offering support and assistance to their neighbours.

“People have shown enormous solidarity. Volunteers are bringing water, food, clothes, and face masks – so that they can help the official authorities move all the debris and rocks, because there are still people trapped under buildings.

“Every once in a while authorities ask for silence so they can hear the people who are still trapped. It’s amazing what people are doing for others – but some people are clearly still in complete shock.”
