A rescue worker searches for survivors or victims of Monday's earthquake at a spot where five and six-storey buildings collapsed in Hanwang, Sichuan Province May 15, 2008. An aftershock brought new havoc to the earthquake-stricken region of China on Friday, as it struggled to bury some of its estimated 50,000 dead, dig out more survivors and help thousands of injured and homeless.
