Chinese military officers load supplies at a staging area where earthquake victims are being ferried to by boat from areas at the epicenter of Monday's quake that are inaccessible by road at the Zipingpu Dam near Dujiangyan, southwestern China's Sichuan province, Thursday, May 15, 2008. China warned the death toll from this week's earthquake could soar to 50,000, while the government issued a rare public appeal Thursday for rescue equipment as it struggled to cope with the disaster.
