Headline: Taiwan Hit With Strongest Earthquake in 25 Years

Caption: Taiwan Hit With Strongest Earthquake in 25 Years. A 7.4-magnitude earthquake rocked Taiwan early on April 3, AP reports. Nine people have been confirmed dead so far. Over 900 others have been injured. Dozens of people are trapped in buildings and quarries. The massive quake prompted a tsunami warning that has since been lifted. Taiwan is usually one of the best-prepared countries for earthquakes, as it experiences them often. This is because Taiwan is located on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" where most of the planet's earthquakes occur, AP reports.
