Rescue workers still looking for 47 victims

Rescuers have started disinfecting the site of Friday's huge landslide that buried 83 workers in a mining area near Lhasa, in the Tibet autonomous region, to prevent the outbreak of disease.

Though 36 bodies have been retrieved, the team had not found the others missing, who are thought to be buried under the debris, by Tuesday.
