A huge earthquake has hit an area just outside Santiago, Chile with a magnitude of 8.8 on the Richter scale. Video showed the destruction of the massive Chile earthquake on local television. Reports indicate many people have been killed from the earthquake and that aftershocks are the biggest fear at this time.
The earthquake that centered in Chile now affects other areas with Tsunami warnings issued for Japan, Hawaii and areas of the South Pacific. The tsunami would take almost 24 hours to reach the area around Japan but could have dire consequences for the area.
President Michele Bachelet of Chile called the area a 'state of catastrophe' after the destruction of the earthquake.
