THE United States has cancelled a tsunami warning for all Pacific nations that had been issued in the wake of a 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile.
"The Pacific-wide tsunami warning issued by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre is now cancelled for all countries," the White House said in a statement.
The earthquake that struck off the coast of Chile before dawn on Saturday killed more than 300 people and affected as many as two million as it left a trail of destruction through a swathe of central Chile.
One of the largest earthquakes on record, it sent tsunami waves crashing into coastal areas of the South American nation of 16 million people, and then roaring across the Pacific Ocean as far as New Zealand and Japan.
The centre said that "additional destructive tsunami impacts" were "not expected for coastal areas not already affected".
Let us pray for the victims in Chile. May the lived ones stay strong and rest in peace for the dead.
