Many dead in new Pakistan quake
Updated: 09:49, Sunday September 29, 2013
Pakistani officials say they have already recovered 22 bodies
following a powerful 6.8-magnitude earthquake that hit a region already
devastated by an earlier tremor.
Officials fear the toll in
yesterday's quake in the southwest province of Baluchistan, could still
rise further. The quake is believed by the US Geological Survey to be
an aftershock of Tuesday's 7.7-magnitude temblor which left more than
300 people dead.
However an official at the National Seismic Centre of Pakistan classified it as a new earthquake.
