International


Carlos Vidal is still shoveling rubble that used to be his home a year after the deadliest wildfires in Chile's history tore through his neighborhood and the coastal cities of Valparaiso and Vina del Mar, killing 137 people.
Vidal, 63, says he signed up to receive government housing but got no response, so he has been slowly rebuilding his home, aided by a government bonus, on the ashes of his previous one.
