		</div><p>At least three people have died and more than two dozen others were injured after an earthquake shook south-western China near the border with Myanmar, while a separate 7.3-magnitute quake collapsed a bridge and caused other damage in central China.</p>
<p>The second quake hit the southern part of Qinghai province, about 621 miles north of the first quake in Yunnan province.</p>
<p>US Geological Survey geophysicist Jonathan Tytell said the two quakes were not related.</p>
<p>The Qinghai tremor was followed by 453 aftershocks throughout the early morning into midday, according to the official People’s Daily newspaper. At least eight people were injured.</p>
<p>While no deaths have been reported so far in Qinghai province, the quakes tore up roads and bridges, with one collapsing completely.</p>
<p>The Yunnan province seismological bureau gave the magnitude of the Friday night quake as 6.4 and said it struck five miles below the surface north-west of the city of Dali.</p>
<p>Shallow quakes often cause more damage, especially in populated areas.</p>
<p>The earthquake caused strong shaking around Dali, but Chinese news reports showed relatively little damage.</p>
<p>Three people died and 28 were injured, the Yunan province’s publicity department said.</p>
<p>Relief efforts are under way, with the provincial authorities sending emergency rations and tents to the affected areas.</p>
<p>In Qinghai, authorities set up temporary safety shelters due to continuous aftershocks.</p>
<p>Last year, a magnitude 5 earthquake in Yunnan killed four people and injured 23.</p>
<p>China’s worst earthquake in recent years struck the mountainous western portion of Sichuan province to the north of Yunnan in 2008, killing nearly 90,000 people.</p>
