I pray God that they will be safe. I think that many phone lines and cell phones towers may be down for the moment but some shall be in service in the next 24 hours. I hope you will be able to contact your family very soon. It may be a good idea to call the police and emergency workers in these towns where your relatives are and check if your relatives have left their homes in particular your two elderly uncles. God be with you.
Thank you and with you as well.
