Magnitude-7.5 earthquake hits Taiwan, triggering tsunami warning in Japan, Philippines

Quick Glance: Taiwan Rejects China's Aid Offer After Earthquake

Taiwanese authorities have not yet estimated the cost of recovering from the massive, deadly earthquake that hit the island on Wednesday.

China offered aid, but Taiwan swiftly turned it down due to their conflict-ridden relationship.

Taiwan's quick rejection likely stems from lingering bitterness over how the 1999 earthquake was handled.

China's aid always comes with conditions, leading to Taiwan's resistance based on distrust and military threats.

Rescue effort turns to recovery in search for 6-year-old who fell into Pennsylvania creek

usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/03/24/search-for-6-year-old-chester-creek/73085436007/

Quick Glance: Search for Missing 6-Year-Old in Chester Creek

Emergency response teams from throughout Delaware County and neighboring areas conducted a search in the Chester Creek on Saturday evening for a missing 6-year-old who was believed to have fallen into the rain-swollen water.

The young child, whose identity was not disclosed by the first responders, was reported missing shortly before 8 p.m. after being in the vicinity of the creek at East 7th Street and the Avenue of the States in downtown Chester, as communicated by Tim Boyce, the Director of Emergency Management for Delaware County.

Boyce mentioned that the heavy rainfall had intensified the current in the creek.

The search operation for the child involved the Chester police, along with various fire and police departments from across Delaware County. Additional teams from Wilmington and the U.S. Coast Guard base in South Philadelphia were also enlisted. They thoroughly searched the riverbanks and the waters within.
