 Why were so many people killed in the initial eruption? On Sunday, when the volcano exploded in a massive cloud of ash and molten rock, Hernandez said her brother and sister ran to check on their 70-year-old grandmother on the family's plot of land in the village of San Miguel Los Lotes. Only 17 of the bodies recovered so far have been identified due to the extreme heat that charred their features and burned off fingerprints, and authorities hope other means such as DNA testing can help.

 Rescue workers run for cover as the Volcan de Fuego, or "Volcano of Fire," blows more clouds of ash in the El Rodeo hamlet of Escuintla, Guatemala, Tuesday, June 5, 2018. Even in more distant central Escuintla, which hosts most of the shelters for those evacuated from other areas, businesses were closed as people left. Near San Miguel Los Lotes, Miriam Juarez and her husband, Jose Amigar, waited Wednesday near a cordoned area, hoping authorities would let them pass so they could retrieve some belongings. "She said that it was God's will, she was not going to flee," Hernandez said. The couple has been staying at a Mormon church in the nearby city of Escuintla and going to a morgue there to await news. "It may be that this dog no longer has a family." Six children will be treated for severe burns at Shriners Hospitals for Children in Galveston, Texas, the hospital said. The Guatemalan military said a U.S. Air Force plane was flying in Tuesday to take about a half-dozen children who suffered burns for treatment in Galveston, Texas.
– At least 75 people are now confirmed dead in the eruption of Guatemala's "Volcano of Fire" and authorities fear the true death toll could be in the hundreds. At least 192 people are missing and one village, El Rodeo, has been almost completely wiped off the map by a river of lava, the BBC reports. Rescue work was badly disrupted Tuesday when strong explosions sent fresh ash, rock, and gases streaming down the Fuego volcano, which is around 25 miles away from Guatemala City, reports CNN. Authorities say only 23 victims have been identified so far, including two young girls, ages 3 and 6. Around 3,000 people have been evacuated and the US Air Force is taking six badly burned children to Texas for treatment. In the village of Escuintla, survivor Lilian Hernandez listed no fewer than 36 missing family members, the AP reports. "My cousins Ingrid, Yomira, Paola, Jennifer, Michael, Andrea, and Silvia, who was just 2 years old," the distraught woman said. In El Rodeo, rescuers dug through ash-covered homes and found one sign of life: A dog that somehow survived in a home where four people died. "Animals have a different sort of resistance ... and different behavior when it comes to finding refuge," says Julio Sanchez, a spokesman for the country's disaster agency.
