Sabita Nepal, 5, cries as she speaks for the first time since April 25, to her mother on a mobile phone at the National Trauma Centre hospital in the capital Kathmandu on April 30, 2015, following a 7.8 magnitude earthquake which struck the Himalayan nation on April 25. The UN launched an appeal for Nepalese quake survivors in dire need of shelter, food and medical care April 30 as anger boiled at the government’s inability to cope with a disaster that has killed more than 5,000 people.
