Prayers for China - earthquake victims
Let us all come together to pray for the victims that they will be able to go back to their homes and continue their normal life. Pray that more people will be saved and less casualties in coming days.

MIENYANG, China (CNN) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Thursday ordered 90 more helicopters for rescue missions in Sichuan province, adding urgency to the massive relief operations under way since Monday's devastating earthquake.

Rescuers carry the injured from the quake-stricken town of Yingxiu Wednesday in Sichuan province.

Since the 7.9-magnitude quake struck Monday, China has dispatched 20 choppers for dropping food and water, transporting the injured and delivering rescuers, Xinhua reported. Thursday's order brings the total to 110.

Rescuers continued their attempts to save those trapped beneath the rubble at schools, businesses and homes.

Aftershocks at times forced rescuers to turn away from the fallen buildings, leaving crowds frustrated without knowing the fate of loved ones. Video from one disaster scene shows a woman clinging to a crane after rescuers suspended a mission at a crumbled building, deeming the site to dangerous to enter.

But there were scattered stories of survival. A 3-year-old girl was rescued from beneath a toppled building in Sichuan's Beichuan County on Thursday, Xinhua said. Photos of the rescue showed the girl sustained a leg injury, but was otherwise alert.

A frightened seventh-grade girl was pulled safely from the rubble of a school dormitory Wednesday evening -- 50 hours after she was buried by Monday's earthquake, state-run media said.

More news:

China ramped up its rescue effort in the earthquake-hit southwest on Thursday, where more than 40,000 people lay dead or buried under rubble and time was running out to save the living.

As rescue teams worked round the clock, a new threat emerged from creaking dams and reservoirs in the disaster zone which could swamp already flattened towns downstream.
