People across much of China and as far away as Thailand and Vietnam reported feeling the tremors. The 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck in Sichuan Province on Monday.

CHONGQING, China -- (UPDATE 6) China's most devastating earthquake in three decades killed nearly 9,000 people on Monday, with the toll likely to soar as authorities struggle to reach casualties in large areas cut off from relief.
