Almost everyone who was on a island at the mouth of the Maule river in Chile was swept away to the deaths by the tsunami. American news media have largely abandoned the story, but new details are coming out daily by overseas media more concerned with “international news”. Here is a clip from a Reuters story. Link at the bottom. |

Hundreds of campers feared killed by Chile tsunami* Witnesses say several hundred were on devastated island * Only a handful survived huge waves * Bodies washing up on shore By Ignacio Badal ISLA ORREGO, Chile, March 4 (Reuters) - Several hundred people, many of them families with children, were visiting this small island to celebrate the end of summer when Chile's worst earthquake in decades struck and caused huge ocean waves. Five days later, fisherman Mario Leal stares into the distance and mourns the families who were there, including his wife and two young children. "Everyone died there, whole families of 10 to 12 people who were camping," said the 30-year-old, still clearly in shock. "I lost everything. All my family and my house." Orrego Island stands in the mouth of the river Maule that flanks the central Chilean town of Constitucion, where hundreds of people died in the quake and huge tsunami waves that followed in the early hours of Saturday. |
