Each fact is a sentence from a source that at least two independent outlets report.
China’s official news agency Xinhua said on Friday that communication in part of the region has been down.
The earthquake also caused rockfalls that have forced local authorities to close a section of National Highway 317, allowing only emergency, rescue and official support vehicles through as crews worked to clear debris, according to Xinhua.
It was the biggest earthquake in the region in the last five years, China's national broadcaster CCTV said.
He called for all-out efforts in rescue operations and medical relief work. "(We) must go all-out to carry out search and rescue operations and do our utmost to treat the injured, to minimise casualties," he said.
At least 126 people died in January 2025 in Tingri county, on the north side of Mount Everest.
