N.Zealand quake toll 76, hopes of survivors fade

CHRISTCHURCH - INTERNATIONAL rescuers intensified their search for earthquake survivors in New Zealand on Thursday, despite fading hopes of finding any more people alive and fears that a damaged 26-storey tower could collapse nearby at any time.

Specialist teams from quake-prone countries such as Japan and the United States used sniffer dogs and listening devices to search for signs of life, two days after a strong tremor struck the tourist city of Christchurch, killing at least 76 people in the country's deadliest natural disaster for 80 years.
