Beijing, China:

An earthquake with a magnitude of seven.4 jolted China’s northwestern Qinghai province early Saturday, the US Geological Survey mentioned — following one other tremor within the nation’s southwest that left at the very least two useless.

The epicentre of the quake in Qinghai, which struck at 2:04 am (1804 GMT Friday) at a comparatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres (six miles), was positioned about 400 kliometres southwest of town of Xining, US seismologists mentioned.
