Rescue efforts under way after earthquake in Tibet kills more than 120
More than 400 people trapped by a strong earthquake that struck the foothills of the Himalayas on Tuesday have been rescued, Chinese authorities said, while over 30,000 residents have been relocated, as rescuers continue the search for survivors.
The magnitude 6.8 quake's epicentre was in China's Tibet region, about 80 km (50 miles) north of Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain. Tremors also shook buildings in neighbouring Nepal, Bhutan India and Bangladesh.
