"Italy applied for financial assistance from the EU Solidarity Fund following the series of earthquakes that struck on 20 May 2012. A heavy earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9 on the Richter scale affected wide parts of Northern Italy and caused severe damage in many towns and villages, in particular around the epicentre, mostly in the provinces of Modena and Ferrara in the region of Emilia-Romagna. On 29 May, a second strong earthquake with a magnitude of 5.8 on the Richter scale occurred with the epicentre slightly to the west. Both events were followed by several serious aftershocks. The earthquakes caused 27 deaths, an estimated 350 people were injured and over 45 000 people had to be evacuated. The Italian authorities estimated total damage at EUR 13 273 736 063. Despite the financial difficulties affecting the 2012 budget, I think it is necessary and right for Parliament to send a signal to the victims of these disasters to help them at this difficult time."@en1
