Earthquake Toll

June 3, 2021;

The 7.3 magnitude earthquake in Golog, Tibet on May 22 has left at least 20 people dead and over 300 injured. The authorities are blocking the flow of news from the area so the deaths and injuries cannot be confirmed and news is slow to emerge; local residents have been barred from posting online and ordered to report any information to the Chinese authorities instead.
