Earthquake in Lisbon! Weather forecasts warn of new disasters in Portugal

Today, a powerful earthquake struck the   capital of Portugal, Lisbon, causing  significant damage to the city. The tremors, which reached a magnitude  of 5.4, began early in the morning,   when most city residents  were still in their homes. The epicenter of the earthquake was in the  Atlantic Ocean, just fifty kilometers from   the coast, which also caused a tsunami threat. The city's medical services are working at  the limit of their capabilities, providing   assistance to victims and evacuating the wounded  from the areas most affected by the disaster. Local authorities declared a state  of emergency and called on citizens   to remain calm, avoid panic and follow  the instructions of rescue services. Due to the threat of aftershocks  and possible landslides,   residents of coastal areas  are evacuating to safe zones. Rescue work is ongoing, and  forecasters do not rule out   the possibility of new tremors in the coming days.
