Rescuers are very night spent to get people from the rubble. By the quake, thousands of people lost their homes. The rescue services had set up tent camps in order to be able to spend the night.

'Ninety percent of the victims that we get is unfortunately deceased from the rubble, says volunteer Christian Bianchetti against the newspaper. 'But some make it, and why we do it.' Along with dozens of others he worked in Amatrice all night.

However, it is a race against time, because the chance that someone can survive much longer under the debris is small. It is therefore expected that the earthquake death toll will rise further.

Many victims are children, the Italian health minister Beatrice Lorenzin said on its visit to the affected area. In the area have many Romans a second home. In August attract many city dwellers to their summer houses with their children.
