KATHMANDU - An earthquake of magnitude 6.6 in Nepal early on Wednesday (Nov 9) killed four children and two adults, seriously injured five others as several houses collapsed in the western district of Doti, and shook New Delhi in neighbouring India. Local media showed mud and brick houses destroyed by the quake in the Himalayan country and rescuers digging through.
At least six persons were killed when a powerful 6.6-magnitude earthquake jolted the remote mountainous region of western Nepal early Wednesday, close to where Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba was campaigning for the upcoming elections.
