The Brazilian Army suffered 14 fatal casualties (including a Colonel) and has four soldiers missing up to now.
The Brazilian Force forms the main core of the UN Peace Force that is kept there since 2004.
Let's pray for them, that died in a peacekeeping mission.
Meanwhile, the remaining force is trying to give the locals some help, and supplies has been sent from Brazil through the Air Force, in order to mitigate so much suffering. In the picture below, Brazilian soldiers look at a UN building that collapsed during the quake.
