Photos of the Earthquake in Mexico City – The Atlantic

On September 19, 2017, a magnitude 7.1 earthquake shook Mexico City, rattling skyscrapers and sending millions into the streets. Reuters was reporting at least 60 deaths across several Mexican states.

Below, some early images of the still-unfolding disaster in Mexico City.
