China marks 10 years since Sichuan quake

It’s been 10 years since the Sichuan earthquake, one of China’s worst natural disasters.

More than 70 thousand people were killed in the Sichuan earthquake, just months before the 2008 Beijing Olympics. 18,000 others are still listed as missing.

The tragedy also became a political test, after questions were raised about the number of buildings which collapsed.
