An 8.8 magnitude Chile had hit Chile which one of the most populated city in the world. This is an excerpt from Inquirer.net

A huge 8.8-magnitude earthquake rocked Chile early Saturday killing at least 78 people, toppling buildings and triggering a tsunami threatening the Pacific rim of fire, officials said.

The massive quake plunged much of the Chilean capital, Santiago, into darkness as it snapped power lines and severed communications.

The US Pacific Tsunami warning center issued a “widespread” tsunami warning for all Pacific nations.The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said that the tremor could generate a destructive tsunami that could hit coastlines on the eastern side of the archipelago.”There is a possibility that tsunami will widely occur in the Pacific Ocean,” an official for the Japanese meteorological agency said as Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines also issued warnings.

Pacific region headquarters have also issued a memo regarding this earthquake effect in different countries , you can see the memo in here .

I think the only thing that we can do is to pray that this tsunami will not lead to any further distraction to any part of the pacific area.
