Ten people disappeared due to a tsunami caused by a landslide, according to ONEMI (Chile's National emergency office), but three bodies were found on April 22 by the Chilean Navy.

On the mountains around the fjord, the earthquake caused landslides that in turn created waves as high as fifty meters, which severely damaged some salmon aquaculture installations.

Despite protests against the government organized by Aysen's mayor, Chile's president, Michelle Bachelet, visited the affected zone.

She was met with black flags, and, during the protest, Aysen's mayor Óscar Catalán was arrested.

Catalán had been heavily critical that the region had not received the necessary help to prevent damage and casualties, as the swarm had been active since January.
