    A helicopter's plucked to safety six people stranded in a mining area after Taiwan's worst earthquake in 25 years



    The death toll from Wednesday's 7.2-magnitude quake is now 10, with a thousand and 67 people injured.

    Around 660 people are still trapped in a national park after roads were cut off, which is where the latest body was found.
