Taiwan earthquake: More than 600 stranded a day after 7.4 magnitude strike | BBC News


Rescuers in Taiwan are working to reach more than 600 stranded people, a day after the island experienced its worst earthquake in 25 years.

One survivor has recounted how tremors unleashed rockslides "like bullets" around the coal mine he was working at.

The 7.4 magnitude earthquake hit near the eastern county of Hualien, killing nine and injuring more than 1,000 people.

Some stuck in tunnels and near a national park have been rescued by helicopters, but 34 are still missing.
