ABC News (Australia) - Dozens dead after huge Iranian quake shakes Middle East, Asia, Apr 16, 2013

 "The US Geological Survey says the epicentre of the magnitude 7.8 quake was 86 kilometres from the city of Iranian Khash, near the border with Pakistan. It killed at least 35 people in neighbouring Pakistan, destroying hundreds of houses and shaking buildings as far away as India and Gulf Arab states. Search and rescue efforts are now underway in the sparsely-populated desert and mountain region. An Iranian provincial governor said there are no reports of deaths in Iran so far, but there were reports that 27 people had been injured. Communications to the area have been cut which is making it difficult for authorities to assess the number of casualties"

"By Bryan Marquard, Globe Staff As she did every year, Krystle Campbell of Arlington went to Copley Square for the finish of the Boston Marathon, drawn by the euphoria of crowds cheering runners through the final paces of the race. “She’s been doing it since she was a little girl,” said her grandmother, Lillian Campbell of Somerville. “She didn’t miss a Marathon, watching it at the finish line.” Krystle Campbell was standing along Boylston Street on Monday with another woman – her grandmother said she was Krystle’s best friend, Karen – when the explosions went off. Krystle died from her injuries and Karen was seriously injured, Lillian said. She said her granddaughter, who graduated from Medford High School, had worked for several years at Jasper White’s Summer Shack locations in Cambridge and Hingham before taking a job with Jimmy’s Steer House in Arlington recently."

OBAMA: Boston attack 'an act of terrorism', Apr 16, 2013

"President Obama said Tuesday the FBI is investigating the Boston Marathon bombings as an "act of terrorism," but the perpetrators and motives remain a mystery. "What we don't yet know, however, is who carried out this attack or why, whether it was planned and executed by a terrorist organization, foreign or domestic, or was the act of a malevolent individual," Obama said in brief remarks at the White House. "Clearly, we're at the beginning of our investigation," Obama said. "It will take time to follow every lead and determine what happened, but we will find out. We will find whoever harmed our citizens, and we will bring them to justice.""

Monday’s explosions at the Boston Marathon, one of America’s top sporting events, forced cities from New York to Los Angeles to go on high alert and conjured up memories of the September 11, 2001 attacks."
