Hopes of finding additional survivors from an earthquake in Taiwan are fading after rescuers find two more bodies in a partially collapsed hotel and detect no signs of a missing family of five.
Rescuers broke through to a room in the Beauty Inn where a couple — Canadian citizens originally from Hong Kong — were found.
The deaths of the couple, both 49, raises the death toll to 12, including four tourists from China and a 27-year-old Filipino employed as a household helper.
Taiwan's National Fire Agency listed 273 people as injured.
Key points:
The death toll sits at 12, with five still missing and 273 injured
