2004年12月26日,印度尼西亚苏门答腊岛附近海域发生了近百年罕见的大地震。据美国地质勘探局公布的报告称,此次地震的震级高达里氏8.9级。大地震引起海啸,十几米高的巨浪以排山倒海之势,向邻近的东南亚沿海国家呼啸而去,疯狂而凶狠地扑向海岛、大陆。海啸肆虐之处,满目狼藉。地震与海啸造成了极其严重的人员伤亡与财产损失。这次罕见的地震海啸在印度、斯里兰卡、印尼、孟加拉国、泰国、马来西亚等国造成了成千上万的人死亡,受伤和失踪的人数更是惊人。受海啸袭击的印度洋海岸,其状惨不忍睹。世界卫生组织高级专家称,灾后疫病流行可能让死亡人数翻番,灾后防疫迫在眉睫。
On December 26, 2004, a rare earthquake hit nearly 100 years in the sea near Sumatra Island, Indonesia. According to a report released by the United States Geological Survey, the magnitude of the earthquake was 8.9 on the Richter scale. The great earthquake caused a tsunami, and a dozen meters of high waves crashed into the neighboring Southeast Asian coastal countries, rushing wildly and fiercely toward the island and the mainland. The tsunami is raging everywhere. The earthquake and tsunami caused extremely serious casualties and property losses. This rare earthquake and tsunami caused thousands of deaths in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Thailand, and Malaysia. The number of injured and missing people is even more alarming. The tsunami-stricken Indian Ocean coast was terrible. World Health Organization senior experts said that the post-disaster epidemic may double the death toll, and prevention after the disaster is imminent.
