Nepal: Rescue Efforts Continue

Rescue teams in Kathmandu are still trying to find survivors of Nepal’s worst earthquake in 81 years. As time passes, the chance of finding them recedes, although one teenager was found alive five days after the quake. The number of homeless, injured and dead continues to rise. Bodies are being burned as dozens of families wait their turn to say farewell to their relatives. The priest in charge of the rituals says bodies are piling up in nearby buildings. Droves of people continue to leave the city as they denounce the failure of the government to respond to the crisis, and foreign aid barely trickles in. teleSUR.
