Huge characters of “SOS (international Morse code distress signal)” and Chinese word “Jiu Ming (means ‘help’)” formed with stones are seen on an open space on a mountain of Yingpan village, Longtoushan town of Ludian county in Yunan province on August 6, 2014. Formed by a 14-year-old boy named Feng Yuantao, the signal reflected the urgent needs for help of local villagers who have limited access to disaster relief. A 6.5-magnitude earthquake jolted Ludian County of Zhaotong City in southwest China's Yunnan province at 4:30 pm on August 3, 2014. [Photo/ IC]
