Mexico Earthquake
TSF in Mexico epicentre zone
TSF's deployment in Mexico drew to a close on 25th September 2017
Relatives are gathering around sites across the region where offices, schools and houses are no longer, in the hope that four days after the 7.1 Mw earthquake, their loved ones have managed to survive. As the search for survivors under the rubble in Mexico City and its surrounding areas continues, Télécoms Sans Frontières has commenced its route in the states of Morelos and Puebla to assist families and relief efforts.
Whilst damage to the telecommunications networks does not appear to be widespread, the team from our Guadalajara office will be offering calls to families in towns and villages close to the epicentre. This operation comes as part of our dedication to accompany those who have been cut off from one day to the next, providing relief from sudden distress and anguish thanks to a reassuring phone call.
