US pledges $15.5M aid as Colombia quake death toll tops 111

The United States has announced $15.5 million in emergency aid for Colombia after a 7.4 magnitude earthquake struck the country's coffee-growing region and Pacific coast, killing at least 111 people and injuring hundreds. The quake damaged over 1,500 buildings, and rescue teams are searching for survivors amid the rubble. President Abelardo de la Espriella, who took office three days ago, declared a state of emergency, vowing the nation will 'move forward together.' Authorities warn the death toll may rise.
