El Salvador’s earthquakes affect both rich and poor
 |
| Laborers dig through the rubble of what once was a two-story house in the neighborhood of Las Colinas in Santa Tecla, a suburb of San Salvador. The Alfaros, the family that lived there, were not at home at the time of the earthquake. More than 500 of their neighbors were killed by the landslide that buried the community.
