Breaking News: Nepal earthquake, magnitude 7.3, strikes near Everest

A magnitude 7.3 earthquake strikes eastern Nepal, two weeks after a devastating earthquake that killed more than 8,000 people.

At least 29 people have been killed and 1,006 injured, according to the Nepali government.

The latest earthquake hit near the town of Namche Bazaar, near Mount Everest.

The US Geological Survey said it had a magnitude of 7.3. An earthquake on 25 April, centred in western Nepal, had a magnitude of 7.8.

The latest tremor was also felt in northern India and Bangladesh, and was centred east of the Nepalese capital Kathmandu, in a rural area close to the Chinese border.
