BBC News - Frantic search for China landslide survivors in Gansu:
Rescuers in north-west China are continuing a frantic search for more than 1,100 people missing after a huge landslide that has claimed 337 lives.

More heavy rain is forecast in Gansu province, with meteorologists warning that the area will be among those affected by typhoon Dianmu.

The BBC's Chris Hogg, at the scene, says there is thick mud everywhere, and underneath the debris are homes.

He says doctors are searching the upper floors of a crushed apartment block.
