智利救援人员继续搜寻地震幸存者 (Chilean Crews Continue Search for Quake Survivors)
智利救援人员在大地震发生四天后继续搜寻幸存者。星期六的8.8级大地震造成近800人丧生。
有关官员星期三说，随着救援人员在废墟和瓦砾下挖掘出更多的尸体，2月27日地震死亡人数可能还会上升。
在救援工作继续进行之际，智利军队设法制止哄抢和暴力事件。这些事件导致康塞普西翁等城市陷入一片混乱。很多商店被洗劫，一些店铺被放火焚烧。智利第二大城市康塞普西翁长达18个小时的宵禁仍在进行中，军人在街上巡逻，确保食品和水的分发顺利进行。康塞普西翁是离地震震中最近的城市。
一些居民自发采取行动，确保他们的安全。他们设立路障，并记录每一个进入居民区的人。
Chilean rescue crews are continuing to search for survivors, four days after an 8.8-magnitude earthquake devastated parts of the country and killed nearly 800 people.
Officials said Wednesday the death toll from the February 27 quake is likely to increase as crews recover bodies under piles of rubble.
As the recovery effort continues, Chilean troops are working to stop the looting and violence that brought chaos to cities like Concepcion. Many stores have been ransacked and some have been set ablaze.An 18-hour curfew remains in place in Concepcion, the country's second largest city, and military personnel are on patrol to make sure food and water are distributed properly. Concepcion was the city closest to the epicenter of the earthquake.
Some residents are taking steps to ensure their own security, setting up roadblocks to keep track of everyone entering their neighborhoods.
