Footage emerges of the earthquake in a remote part of southwestern China where at least 150 people have died, according to state news agency Xinhua.
A strong earthquake in southern China's Yunnan province toppled
houses on Sunday, killing and wounding hundreds, officials and state media reported.
China's official Xinhua News Agency said at least 150 people were killed in the quake.
Ma Liya, a resident of Ludian's county seat, told Xinhua that the streets there were like "battlefield after bombardment." She added that her neighbor's house, a new two-story building, had toppled.
Chen Guoyong, the head of Longtoushan township, told Xinhua that many houses there had collapsed, and that rescue workers were working to determine casualties.
CCTV footage of the moment the earthquake struck shows the cameras wobbling and people running out into the street in panic.
