Friends and families of victims of Wednesday, August 24th, 2016, 6.2 magnitude earthquake, and a 4.7 magnitude aftershocks which struck three central Italian towns, are still trying to come to terms with what eye-witnesses described as apocalyptic scenes "likeDante's Inferno,".
Amatrice, Accumoli, about 100 kilometers northeast of Rome, and Pescara del Tronto, about 25 kilometers further east, are the three towns severely hit in the disaster that claimed over 250 lives including children, about 400 injured and brought the towns to rubble.
World Leaders and individuals from across the globe continued to show supports to the Italian government in the rescure efforts, and to affected families.
