Three deaths were reported in Bihar, India, and Tibet suffered another fatality.

The earthquake hit a remote mountainous region of Nepal early Tuesday afternoon, triggering landslides and toppling buildings less than three weeks after the country was ravaged by its worst quake in decades.

The Canadian Red Cross posted a video from a village near Dhunche, showing a landslide rushing into town seconds after the earthquake.

“Little houses were falling,” said James Shaw, the Red Cross technician who shot the video. “As the earthquake happened, boulders from the top of the mountain started coming down.”

“Everybody was running away.”

The landslide covered a part of the village and cut off several roads, he said.

Rescue helicopters were sent to districts northeast of the capital of Kathmandu, where landslides and buildings collapsed by the magnitude-7.3 quake may have left people buried, the government said. Home Ministry spokesman Laxmi Dhakal named the Sindhupalchowk and Dolkha districts as the hardest hit.
