New Zealand's South Island or to be exact, the southern city of Christchurch has suffered a powerful earthquake of 7.1 magnitude in the early Saturday. Fortunately there were no deaths and only 2 injuries cases were reported so far.


There were reports of some people trapped in damaged buildings though none appeared to be crushed by rubble and unscrupulous looters broke into some of damaged shops in the city of 400,000, authorities said.
