The tsunami that has left a path of destruction across southeast Asia has claimed more than 120,000 lives, Reuters reports.
Aid agencies warned on Thursday that many more, from Indonesia to Sri Lanka, could die in epidemics if shattered communications and transport hampered what may prove history's biggest relief operation.

    I just can't get my head round the scale of this tragedy.

    I'm still in shock to be honest. Those poor people. I just hope we can all help them quickly an efficiently to make sure one disaster doesn't spawn off into another.
