Hundreds of civilians have fled the fighting and the militiamen have been torching houses as they disperse.
People are so poor there that their huts may collapse. The biggest burden from this quake is going to be the rebuilding of homes rather than the injuries.
Residents told us that some people had died and others were injured but we do not have any figures yet.
The death toll is at risk of increasing, even if it won't be great.
The most critical needs include medicine, blankets, rehabilitation of houses as well as non-food items such as kitchen utensils.
We don't have any new figures, but we are concerned that the aftershocks may have cause more structural damage to buildings in the town.
