Troops join rescue as China earthquake kills more than 390 --- (CNN) -- Troops joined rescue operations in Yunnan province, southwestern China Monday following a 6.1-magnitude earthquake but the search for survivors was hampered by rainfall and aftershocks. -- At least 398 people have been killed, and 1,801 injured by the quake that struck on Sunday afternoon, state-run media has reported. -- The quake struck at 4.30 p.m. local time (4.30 a.m. ET). The majority of the casualties occurred in the city of Zhaotong, Ludian County. -- The epicenter of the quake was recorded in Longtoushan Township, 23 kilometers (14 miles) southwest of Zhaotong, and tremors were felt almost 200 miles away. Hundreds of aftershocks have been recorded following the initial tremor. -- Beijing has allocated 600 million yuan ($97 million) for relief efforts, Xinhua reported Monday. -- It is a fairly remote, partly mountainous area. Many live in low-rise houses made of wood and bricks or plaster, which make them prone to collapse. - More, http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/03/world/asia/china-earthquake/index.html
