Beijing (China): At least two persons have been killed and another 10 listed missing after a landslide hit a hotel in central China’s Hubei Province.
A total of 15 people were trapped in the Mirage Hotel in Nanzhang County at around 7:30 PM yesterday when around 3,000 cubic meters of debris slid down a slope behind the hotel, said the firefighter in charge of the rescue.
Rescuers have pulled five survivors from the debris, two of whom died in hospital, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
