Suribeth Cortez is fighting for her life in Panama after being hit by a collapsing wall during the 7.5 magnitude earthquake

Suribeth Cortéz, a 22-year-old woman, is in critical condition at the Hospital Santo Tomás in Panama following a 7.5 magnitude earthquake that struck the country on Friday. Cortéz sustained severe injuries after a wall collapsed on her during the seismic event.

In a separate incident, six inmates escaped from a maximum-security prison in the Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas province of Ecuador. The prisoners fled on Monday after creating a hole in the wall of their cell, an event that has been confirmed by local police authorities.
