A powerful earthquake hit central Italy overnight, killing at least 70 people, according to Italy’s civil protection agency, and destroying several towns. Victims are still being pulled from the rubble, and the full extent of the devastation is not yet clear. The U.S. Geological Survey posted that the center of the quake was about 100 miles northeast of Rome, had a magnitude of 6.2 and was shallow — at a depth of just over 6 miles. #ItalyEarthquake: Appenines region now faces a prolonged and energetic aftershock sequencehttps://t.co/oNUMi50sXb pic.twitter.com/loMoZEr9Vt — The Conversation (@ConversationUK) August 24, 2016 Heartbreaking before & after images
