When the sheer force of a incoming tsunami obliterates everything in its path, it also clears away roads and railways, hampering rescue efforts. In addition, the torrential water deluging entire hectares prevent helicopters from landing.
Normal rescue launches and boats would also be unable to withstand the impact of the tsunami, and could be sunk or smashed into pieces by the walls of water.
The huge mass of water also broke sewage and water pipes, contaminating water and food sources.
