Dhunche, May 13 (ANI): A second earthquake struck Nepal causing a large landslide in the north of the country in Dhunche. Huge amounts of rocks and mud crashed down the mountain, scattering debris over the buildings at its base and sending plumes of dust into the air. It was unknown if the slide had caused any casualties. The 7.3 magnitude earthquake has killed more than 50 people and left over a thousand injured. Most of the reported fatalities were in villages to the east of Kathmandu, which are only just beginning to recover after the April 25 quake that left more than 8,000 people dead. Many buildings already weakened by the first earthquake less than three weeks ago have also been brought down.
