Boxing Day Quakes

Tsunami | 26.12.2004 16:43 | Technology | London

Coincidentally, in a repeat of last years Boxing Day disaster, a mega-seismic-wave (8.9) has struck southeast Asia, killing thousands and leaving millions homeless. It will takes decades for impoverished coastal regions to recover.

A powerful earthquake (6.6) struck southeastern Iran on December 26, 2003, killing over 43,000 people, injuring 20,000, which left 60,000 homeless and destroyed much of the city of Bam. About 60 percent of the buildings were destroyed.
