Christchurch has suffered another major earthquake that has caused devastation in the city centre and suburbs. The confirmed death toll is 65 with this expected to rise as rescue workers dig through collapsed buildings. The earthquake happened at 12:51 pm when many people were out at lunch. Christchurch Cathedral, the city's icon has suffered severe damage including the collapse of the spire and tower. Other churches have also sustained further damage and look as though they are beyond saving.Article on February Christchurch Earthquake
