Two emergencies are unfolding in China and Iceland.

At least 126 people were reportedly killed in a magnitude 6.2 earthquake in a freezing, mountainous region of north-western China, on the Tibetan Plateau.

Search and rescue operations are under way in the country’s Gansu and neighbouring Qinghai provinces, as rescuers work in sub-zero temperatures.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, the long-grumbling volcano erupted on south-west Iceland’s Reykjanes peninsula after weeks of intense earthquake activity - but without casualties.

The eruption shot lava and smoke more than 330ft into the air.
