Twelve people who survived last year's earthquake in Pakistani Kashmir were killed in a landslide at a camp early Monday, officials said.
The landslide triggered by flash floods buried tents in the quake survivors' camp in Chela Bandi, on the outskirts of Muzaffarabad, capital of Pakistani Kashmir, deputy commissioner Fayyaz Ali Abbasi told AFP.
The rescuers have dug out 12 bodies including women and children who were buried in the mud, Abbasi said.
Authorities had already relocated some 10,000 survivors to safer locations due to the danger posed by monsoon landslides, he said.
The 7.6 magnitude quake on October 8, 2005 claimed more than 73,000 lives, seriously injured nearly 70,000 people and left 3.3 million homeless in Pakistan. More than 1,000 also died in Indian Kashmir.
