NEW ZEALAND - Hopes of finding survivors are dwindling

Three days after the massive earthquake that struck the city of Christchurch, the authorities announced that more than 200 relatives of missing persons should prepare for the worst. A temporary morgue receives the 113 bodies already recovered, a toll that makes this earthquake the worst natural disaster in New Zealand last eighty years.

The Daily Christchurch publishes on its website the list of persons whose death was confirmed. Among them are several foreign nationals.
