The Area Hardest Hit: Earthquake in Nepal (Dispatch 4)

From the South Coast News archive. This report is kept as it was first published; newer guides are linked below.

Sindhupalchowk, a district three hours from Kathmandu, is in the opposite direction of the earthquake’s epicenter, but is one of the hardest hit areas, and one where aid has only recently arrived.

In this dispatch, VICE News visits the district to speak with residents trying to recover their belongings, and a family whose sole breadwinner was killed when a building collapsed on him, as they wait for his body to be recovered from the rubble.
