Tsunami warnings issued for Panama’s coast and parts of the Pacific coast of Latin America were later lifted. Tocumen International Airport temporarily suspended operations, but flights resumed later on Friday. The Panama Canal Authority reported no disruption to shipping through the canal, while President Jose Raul Mulino visited damaged areas as emergency teams assessed the destruction.
