MEXICO CITY, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Elements from the civil protection corps, Red Cross, army, police and voluntary civilians worked through the day on Wednesday to remove rubble from collapsed buildings in Mexico City, after the magnitude-7.1 earthquake shook the center of the country on Tuesday.
The civil protection bureau on Wednesday said at least 230 people had died, including 100 dearths in the capital Mexico City.
Over 200 people gathered on the corner of the streets of Salamance, Nuevo Leon and Alvaro Obregon, where rescue workers sifted through the remains of an office block.
"It is thought there are between 40 and 60 people still there, but we don't know their state," one soldier participating in the rescue told Xinhua.
The area remains closed to traffic from the popular Espana Park to the Cibeles roundabout, where around 40 military vehicles are stationed with equipment and goods for the affected population.
The fountain of Cibeles, a famous tourist site in Mexico city, is also acting as a reception center for food, water and hygiene products as well as a first aid area.
"For the moment, only a few people have come with light injuries and another who had a nervous breakdown," one of the volunteers told Xinhua.
Heavy machinery also joined the efforts in Amsterdam Avenue, one of the emblematic areas of the city, known for its chic atmosphere, filled with cyclists and dog walkers.
Mexico's national coordinator of civil protection, Luis Felipe Puente, said that rescue work had involved 4,169 soldiers, 3,525 navy elements and 20,057 federal police officers.
In an interview with Televisa, Puente said that people were also trapped in fallen buildings in the northern area of Lindavista.
Another focal point has been the Enrique Rebsamen primary school in the south of the capital, where emergency teams and volunteers searched for over 30 missing children. However, hopes dwindled as the body count from the school passed 22 on Wednesday afternoon.
Mexico City's Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera announced on Wednesday that the number of collapsed buildings had been lowered from 45 to 38 after a complete investigation.
At a press conference, he said 52 people had been pulled alive from the rubble, that all hospitals were operating across the city and that all forms of public transport were running free of charge.
"The rescues are success stories for the rescue workers who are working at every single spot," added Mancera.
The earthquake in Morelos came days after the September 7 quake, which registered 8.2 on the Richter scale, and killed 98 people in the states of Oaxaca, Chiapas and Tabasco.
It also took place on the 32nd anniversary of a massive quake which killed over thousands of people on September 19, 1985.
DEIR AL-ZOUR, Syria, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- After a six-hour drive from the capital Damascus to the northeast, through the desert, the only sign of reaching Deir al-Zour city was a checkpoint and a long line of concrete barriers leading to another checkpoint with soldiers manning the entrance with a stone arch sign, featuring the Syrian flag.
After crossing the checkpoint, military outposts were seen surrounding the Panorama roundabout, with no sign of people or cars in the city, which has recently seen an end of a three-year siege imposed by Islamic State (IS) militants.
Driving through the city streets was easy as no cars or people were seen, only some cars, covered with dust, with flat tiers were seen deserted here and there.
The only cars working were military vehicles.
No electricity, or fuel in the city, which later explained the empty streets. The city looked like a ghost town, with dust filling the roads, and air, as it's surrounded by desert.
Xinhua reporters were escorted, along with other Syria-based reporters for foreign agencies, to the city for the first time with the Syrian army since the military forces broke the siege a couple of weeks ago.
After gathering at the Governorate building for a cup of tea and a quick snack, reporters were taken to the al-Wadi street, one of the main roads in the city.
At that popular marketplace, bone-weary people were seen for the first time by reporters. Their faces were haggard, reflecting the suffering during the siege.
Little children and young men started gathering around reporters, particularly when the governor of Deir al-Zour, Mohammed Ibrahim Samra, came to deliver a briefing.
Children were pushing their way through to reach him, and one was so determined.
"I have a fever. I need to speak to him," one child told a Xinhua reporter.
Just a few meters behind the governor, a convoy of aid trucks donated by Iran was on standby as the distribution was about to begin.
As reporters were preparing to start reporting, a sudden sound of explosions started being clearly heard in the area, and that's when people started running for a hiding place.
A man standing on the sidewalk invited Xinhua reporters to take shelter in his little shop.
"It's explosive bullets," people shouted while running for shelter.
Then, the soldiers asked the reporters to leave the area and get on the bus to leave.
One soldier told Xinhua that IS militants flew drones, some of which were outfitted with guns firing explosive bullets.
"They apparently exposed our location or had someone to tip them off about our presence in the area and they started firing," he said.
