People take shelter outside in a public place in fear of aftershocks, after a powerful earthquake struck Nepal, in Kathmandu, Nepal, 26 April 2015. Rescue workers in Nepal scoured through mounds of rubble for earthquake survivors as the country’s official death toll climbed past 2,300 and new tremors sent shocked survivors scurrying outdoors. Nepal’s Interior Ministry put the confirmed death toll from 7.8-magnitude tremor at 2,352, with most of the victims reported in the capital, Kathmandu.
