A priest pulled from the rubble several hours after a massive earthquake hit Italy has hailed his rescue as a "great miracle".
Fr Krzysztof Kozlowski, from Poland, was trapped in his destroyed home in Accumoli on Wednesday before finally being pulled out several hours later. His next-door neighbours had died.
As he waited for help he experienced the terror of aftershocks, fearing they would bring down the rest of the structure.
"Even as I was waiting for help, for someone to bring me out of the apartment, I could feel the tremors. I was afraid they could destroy whatever was left of my house," the priest told the Polish broadcaster TVN.
