Residents of earthquake damaged Christchurch have been warned about the spread of disease. As the clean-up continues, New Zealand's government has approved an initial emergency package. Up to 2/3 of the city's 160,000 homes are now damaged.


In Pakistan, a suicide bomber 5 has killed 19 people, including four children. The attacker rammed 6 a truck laden 7 with explosives into a police station in the country's northwest. The Pakistani Taliban is claiming responsibility for that attack.
