A man embraces his children during an aftershock in the earthquake-hit Yao'an county, Yunnan province July 10, 2009. China on Saturday scaled back its initial estimates of the number of people displaced by a 6.0 magnitude earthquake in southwestern Yunnan province, saying 250,000 rather than 400,000 people had been left homeless.
