The death and injury toll will likely continue to rise as first responders reach more areas affected by the tsunami, but even already now, this is clearly a scary, unfortunate disaster.

Our thoughts and prayers are with everybody involved — especially the first responders and rescuers, now, as they face a very difficult task trying to save those in need.
