Heartbreaking photos...

  
Devastating and heartbreaking photographs emerging daily from various source.

First a 8.9 Earthquake, then came a Tsunami and now a Nuclear threat. These people in Japan have lost their loved ones, made homeless and now facing an invisible radiation threat. They are out of running water, food and power. Emergency rescue teams are running out of fuels and temperatures are freezing cold. Fukushima's workers are risking their lives to battle the nuclear meltdown despite the high levels of radiation. It's heartbreaking. These people have suffered loads within days. Hopefully, the situation will turn for the better soon.

This is truly heartbreaking. I have been trying to avoid the news because when it happened, I saw it all transmitted live and I cried for days. Thank you for taking the time to post about something so important that is going on in the world. I find that as bloggers it is almost out duty to spread the word for people to help.

It's a terrible time for them, I truly hope everything will turn out for the best.

The first two pics are really frightening, yet amazing.

agree it's dramatic and those people in the 30km range are left without food and fuels because people are afraid of going near the plant. it's terrible to imagine the situation these people are in...
