[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]智利宣布北部三处遭8.2级地震袭击的区域为灾区。[/b][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]At least five people are known to have died and tens of thousands of people have been evacuated.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The [url=http://www.enread.com/news/politics/96183.html]quake[/url] struck at 20:46 local time about 86km north-west of the mining area of Iquique, the US Geological Survey said.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Waves of up to 2.1m (6ft) have hit some areas and there have been power cuts, fires and landslides.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The government said the declaration of a disaster in the Arica, Parinacota and Tarapaca regions was aimed at "avoiding instances of [b]looting(抢劫)[/b] and disorder".[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]President Michelle Bachelet said the country had "faced the emergency well" and called on those in affected regions "to keep calm and follow instructions from the authorities".[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]She is due to visit the affected areas on Thursday.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][url=http://www.enread.com/news/politics/96183.html]Chilean[/url] TV broadcast pictures of traffic jams as people tried to leave the affected areas.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Officials said the dead included people who were crushed by collapsing walls or died of heart attacks.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Iquique Governor Gonzalo Prieto told local media that in addition to those killed, several people had been seriously injured.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]While the government said it had no reports of significant damage to coastal areas, a number of homes were reported destroyed in Arica.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Further damage may not be known until dawn.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The quake shook modern buildings in Peru and in Bolivia's high altitude capital of La Paz - more than 470km from Iquique.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]At least eight strong aftershocks followed in the few hours after the quake, including a 6.2 tremor. [/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The Chilean interior ministry told the BBC that one of the main roads outside Iquique was cut off because of hillside debris.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Partial landslides have also taken place between the towns of Putre and General Lagos.[/size][/font]

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The interior minister also told Chilean TV that some 300 women inmates had escaped from a [url=http://www.enread.com/news/politics/96183.html]prison[/url] in Iquique. [/size][/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Officials later said that 26 of them had been recaptured.[/size][/font]
