At least 126 killed in deadly Tibet earthquake, says Chinese state media | BBC News
More than 14,000 rescue workers have arrived in Tibet to continue the search for survivors after a strong earthquake struck in a remote part of western China.
At least 126 people have been killed while more than 400 people have been rescued, Chinese state media says.
The rescue operation is being hampered by winter temperatures that dropped to -16C overnight.
Earthquakes are common in the region, which lies on a major geological fault line, but Tuesday’s was one of China’s deadliest in recent years.

Negotiators for the US and Iran have agreed a framework of a deal that would extend their ceasefire for 60 days and launch negotiations on the future of Iran’s nuclear programme, US sources say.
The agreement comes amid continued strikes and accusations of ceasefire violations, with tensions still high across the region.
Talks are also said to include potential changes to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key global energy route.

More than three months after the US and Israel first began their war with Iran, Washington and Tehran have reached an initial agreement to bring about a more long-term end to hostilities.
US President Donald Trump has said it paves the way for what he called the “toll-free” opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He called on ships to start their engines and “let the oil flow”.
The full text of the deal has not yet been released. Pakistani mediators say the agreement will be officially signed in Switzerland on Friday 19 June.
Our US State Department correspondent Tom Bateman tells us that President Trump and Iranian officials are already giving different accounts of what’s been agreed.

Twelve police officers injured and water cannon fired after second night of NI riots | BBC News
#Belfast #NorthernIrelandTwelve police officers have been injured and 16 people arrested in the second night of rioting in Northern Ireland.
A water cannon was deployed to disperse a large crowd during the unrest prompted by a serious knife attack in Belfast on Monday.
The family of the victim, Stephen Ogilvie, said they did not want this “terrible tragedy to be used to divide people or fuel hostility,” and appealed for privacy.
Hilary Benn, the UK Northern Ireland secretary, said a sense of fear “has spread amongst ethnic minority people” in Northern Ireland after the nights of violence.
On Wednesday, a 30-year-old, originally from Sudan, appeared in court charged with attempted murder over a knife attack that caused serious injuries to the victim.
