Volcanic Eruption in Iceland
China Earthquake 2010
The death toll in the China earthquake rose today as rescue workers scratched through rubble with their hands in the search for survivors in a remote part of the Tibetan plateau.
More than 600 people are reported dead, 9,000 injured and 300 missing, although hundreds of people have been pulled out alive, according to state media. About 15,000 homes are thought to have collapsed and 100,000 people will need to be relocated, authorities say.
