Emergency workers go through rubble in damaged buildings in the city of Hualien, a popular tourist city on Taiwan’s eastern coast. At least nine people were killed and more than 800 injured Wednesday by the earthquake that damaged dozens of buildings and prompted tsunami warnings that extended to Japan and the Philippines before being lifted.
