A strong earthquake in Taiwan has killed at least two people and injured more than 200 others, officials say.
Emergency responders have rescued about 150 people from hotels and residential buildings that have partially collapsed in the city of Hualien.
“We know t are people who are trapped inside – we can see lights inside the hotel,” eyewitness Zeena Starbuck told the BBC. “People with phones are shining their lights to let people know they’re t.”
People reported feeling the quake in the island’s capital, Taipei, more than 160km away.
Rescue efforts have been complicated by powerful aftershocks.
Taiwan sits near a junction of two tectonic plates and is regularly hit by earthquakes.
The earthquake happened on the second anniversary of a 6.4-magnitude tremor that killed 117 people.
