-UPDATE #Croatia #Earthquake

The death toll reached: 5
Total injured: 20

The authorities saied this in a interview. Officials said that in Petrinja, a town of about 25,000 residents, a 12-year-old girl died.
According to state HRT television, another four people were killed in villages near the area. “The center of #Petrinja as it used to be no longer exists,” HRT reported, saying people remained inside collapsed buildings.
The biggest part of central Petrinja is in a red zone, which means that most of the buildings are not usable. The army has 500 places ready in barracks to house people, while others will be accommodated in nearby hotels and other places.

From next year it will be a criminal offense to photograph or film accident victims. Unintentional photographing under the skirt or in the neckline is then made a punishable offense: the Federal Ministry of Justice pointed this out.

The country needed the additional vaccination doses "to be able to start with the over 80s. Of course we can't do that now." Therefore, people over 90 years of age would now be invited to the vaccinations by letter.
