China has begun three days of mourning for the victims of the devastating earthquake in Sichuan province.
Flags are flying at half-mast and at 1428 (0628 GMT) a nationwide silence will be observed to mark exactly a week since the earthquake struck.
The mourning comes as hopes of finding more survivors in the rubble fade.
The number of confirmed deaths now stands at 32,477, but officials say the final toll may reach 50,000. More than 220,000 people have been injured.
