 While the soldiers excavated through the debris for a sign of life, the Government sent the Quetta administration instructions to build a "tent city" to house the homeless survivors and to provide shelter for their rescuers.A fresh supply of medicated pads was brought forth for the soldiers to wear over their mouths while they dug for bodies in fears of a spread of disease from the dead bodies buried underneath.The natural disaster ranks as the 23rd most deadly earthquake worldwide to date.
