Nepal Earthquake

http://rss.cnn.com/~r/rss/cnn_world/~3/jgU9WBL7q8c/index.html


It was a sad day in Nepal Kathmandu, when I read through the CNN news column, of the earthquake that happened which was ruled at 7.8 magnitude, it has been confirmed that about 2,430 people have lost their lives in Nepal and the numbers may go up in the coming days to come. Also 56 people have been reportedly dead in India in'' Bihar'' state, and Chinese Citizens 17 dead in ''Tibet'' per the Chinese   agency news Xinhua, that brings the amount numbering more than 2,500 and that the lives lost so far is based on information they got from the city of lex kassenberg, Nepal informed CNN. And a confirmation stories had it that about 80% of properties in the rural places have been damaged or demolished, and some of the sad news I read was that of 2 American citizens named eve Girawong of new jersey that was killed by an avalanche on mount Everest, Girawong they said was at Everest camp when she was killed, and also the report of a google executive Dan Fredinburg was one of the Americans killed in the avalanche on mount Everest. News has it in Nepal that people are still digging on the wreckages looking for any survivals and maybe dead bodies. And at night people have to sleep in open grounds in the cold night environment, and that food and water are becoming scarce, and electricity is not visible in any place, people resort in using candle light, hope and fear is in everyplace. And many people injured were reportedly treated outside an over packed hospitals where crowds of people are looking for alive and displaced families and loved ones, and when it looks like things were going to get better an aftershock started on Sunday making people crying onto the streets and prompting more new injuries for shocked and distressed residents.
