Rain and landslides blocking key roads hampered efforts Monday to evacuate some 57,000 people left homeless by an earthquake that killed at least 391 in south-western China. Many among the estimated 1 million people affected by Sunday's 6.5-magnitude quake in Yunnan province felt hundreds of aftershocks by Monday morning, dpa reported. Rivers had been blocked by landslides in some areas, bringing the threat of floods, state media said. "The blocked roads and the continuous downpour have made some disaster areas inaccessible for the relief vehicles," said Liu Jianhua, the ruling Communist Party's secretary in Zhaotong city, which administers the worst-hit county of Ludian. Three people were reported missing and about 1,800 were injured, the Ministry of Civil Affairs said.
