Eruption of the "Volcano of fire" in Guatemala

in #news6 years ago

Unfortunately we can not underestimate the strength of nature and a proof of this was the tragedy that took place in the country of Guatemala.
"El Volcán de Fuego" is the name of the volcano located between the towns of Sacatepéquez, Escuintla and Chimaltenango of Guatemala.
This volcano has a height of 3.7 kilometers, being one of the most incredible volcanoes in Central América.

The people who managed to escape this terrible event explain how they lost family, friends and neighbors.
The rescue brigades continue with their work 24 hours, trying to rescue and recover bodies as soon as possible in the communities affected by the eruption, which were buried by tons of volcanic material.


In the form of solidarity I want to share with you impressive images
