VIDEO: Major damage to Chilean port

> From the WeatherWatch archives

This video from CNN shows incredible damage to a port in Chile.  The film shows huge ships tossed up on to land and debris scattered throughout the harbour.

More than 2 million people were affected by the massive 8.8-magnitude earthquake that rocked Chile early Saturday local time says President Michelle Bachelet in a televised news conference today.

At least least 214 people were killed in the quake and the resulting tsunami, which ravaged parts of the Chilean coast and fanned out across the Pacific Ocean.

A large wave killed three people and 10 were missing on the island of Juan Fernandez, 400 miles (643 km) off the coast of Chile, said Provincial Governor Ivan De La Maza.
