BEIJING — A series of strong earthquakes struck China’s western Qinghai province early today, killing at least 400 people, injuring thousands and burying many others under toppled houses in a mountainous rural area, officials and state media said.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the magnitude 6.9 temblor struck an area in southern Qinghai, near Tibet, this morning and was followed by several aftershocks.
