Moment of terror: The clock on Sant'Eusanio Martire church is stopped at the time of last Monday's deadly earthquake in Italy. More than 270 people died.
The Bermuda Red Cross is appealing for donations to help the victims of the Italian earthquake.
More than 50,000 people were left homeless after last Monday's disaster, which killed more than 200 and injured hundreds more.
The early morning quake struck the Abruzzo region of north Italy and rescuers are still pulling bodies from crumpled buildings.
Donations will assist in the rescue operation and in the relief work of distribution of meals, tents and blankets to survivors.
To make a donation, contribute to Bank of Bermuda account: 010-187417-011 or Butterfield Bank account: 20-006-060-663859-200.
