Earthquakes, back-to-back cyclones batter Vanuatu
The Pacific nation of Vanuatu was under a state of emergency Friday, after two earthquakes and two cyclones hit in as many days.. "People on (Espiritu) Santo felt the earthquake, but couldn't go outside to assess the damage because of the high winds," Dickinson Tevi, secretary general of the Vanuatu Red Cross Society told AFP. "They told me they didn't sleep well as the earthquake hit when they were already awake from the cyclone."
