Hoping for a miracle amid the rubble

Soldiers and dogs search for indications of life on ruins of the landslides-hit Zhouqu County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northwest China's Gansu Province, Aug. 11, 2010. The death toll in the massive mudslide in Zhouqu has risen to 1,117, with 627 still missing, local authorities said Wednesday. There is also little hope of finding more survivors in the remains of the valley town of Zhouqu after the first 72 hours, considered the optimum time for rescuing victims. [Photo/Xinhua]
