The earthquake struck late Thursday near Nagqu City, with rescue teams working amid difficult terrain and damaged infrastructure. Reports indicate the toll could change as authorities reach isolated communities and assess collapsed buildings. The disaster is currently the clearest major breaking international story because of its significant casualties, remote location and ongoing rescue effort.
