A state of emergency has been declared in the Italian regions worst affected by Wednesday's powerful earthquake.

At least 267 people were killed by the quake and searches continue for people trapped or dead under debris and rubble.

The mountainous area of central Italy where the earthquake struck will receive €50m (£42m) in funds for rebuilding.
