Three people were killed and more than 80 injured in a
second earthquake in two days in south-western China, reports said.
The magnitude-5.9 quake struck Thursday night in the
Yinjiang region close to the Myanmar
border in Yunnan
province, the official Xinhua news agency said.
More than 120,000 people evacuated the quake-hit area. A day earlier, a
magnitude-5 quake damaged a number of buildings in the same county.
On May 12, at least 70,000 people were killed in a devastating earthquake in
the neighbouring province
of Sichuan.
