AFP: Nearly 10,000 dead in China quake, fears for many more

Quote:
The death toll from China's worst earthquake in over three decades climbed to nearly 10,000 on Tuesday with many thousands more trapped under crushed houses, schools and factories.

Rescuers were still struggling to reach towns and villages devastated by Monday's huge 7.8 magnitude quake in southwestern Sichuan province, which is still being pummeled by wave after wave of terrifying aftershocks.
[...]
China's state-run Xinhua news agency said nearly 10,000 had been killed, but the agency released a steady flow of grim news from towns across the quake zone which indicated the toll was expected to rise dramatically.
