More than 100 dead after massive earthquake rocks China
At least 118 people have been killed and 400 left injured after a huge 6.2 magnitude earthquake hit northwest China.
Rescuers are scrambling to find survivors in temperatures of -13C after China's deadliest quake in years struck rural Gansu province.
Officials said the shallow quake struck just before midnight 60 miles from Gansu's provincial capital, Lanzhou - with at least 118 confirmed dead in Gansu and Qinghai so far.
At least 20 people remain missing - and the death toll is expected to rise.
Sub zero temperatures mean the "golden window" to find survivors is shorter than usual, officials said.
The huge quake damaged more than 5,000 homes - many of them ramshackle brick structures - and sent residents running into the freezing streets for safety.
