India: Two reported dead in Darbhanga after massive quake in Nepal

The Indian district of Darbhanga saw destruction after a 7.3 magnitude earthquake struck near Kodari in Nepal, Tuesday. Two people are reported to have died in Darbhanga as a result of the quake, which also injured over a dozen people in the area. The latest earthquake comes just weeks after a 7.8 April 25 quake that claimed the lives of over 8,000 people. The epicentre of Tuesday's earthquake is believed to be roughly 50 miles (80 km) east of Kathmandu, near to the border with China, and close to the Everest base camp. A number of aftershocks, some measuring a magnitude of 6.3, followed the initial quake and tremors were felt as far away as New Delhi, India, where two people are believed to have been killed. Officials say 37 people were killed in Nepal and a further 17 in India in Tuesday's quake and aftershocks, though the death toll is expected to rise.
