I was at a scene of despair and destruction. You could still smell the perfume in the air, and also there's a stench of death. There were hundreds upon hundreds of people looking at the Red Cross workers trying to carry out rescue operations. We understand Red Cross have put up tents in that area and are offering counselling to the residents. They've lost incomes, and they've lost loved ones, people who are breadwinners. There have been lots of children who've been killed as well. So it's stretching the rescue support that is getting there right now.

现在，现场一片绝望，满目疮痍。你仍然可以嗅到空气中爆炸的的气息和尸体的恶臭。数千人正在等待红十字会工作人员进行救援行动。我们了解到，红十字会已经在该地区搭起了帐篷，为居民提供辅导。他们失去了收入，失去了亲人，失去了家庭支柱。在爆炸中遇难的还有许多儿童。所以，红十字会现在正努力增加对这里的救援支持。
