According to United States Geological Survey, the cities of Jiangyou (population:127,000); Tianpeng (60,000); Guangyuan (213,000); Mianyang (264,000); and the provincial capital, Chengdu (3,950,000) all received extensive damage and continuous aftershocks. Based on current reports (June 1, 2008), 69,016 people are reported dead, another 18,830 people remain missing and 368,545 are injured.
