KATHMANDU—Rescue workers in Nepal dug with shovels and their bare hands on Wednesday as they searched for a woman killed the previous day when she was swept away by a landslide triggered by an earthquake, police said.
Two quakes, of magnitude 6.3 and 5.3, struck about half an hour apart in the Bajhang district bordering India on Tuesday, bringing down several houses, injuring at least 16 people, setting off landslides, and severing a main road.
