Second Earthquake Hits Nepal

Nepal has been hit by a powerful new earthquake, sending thousands rushing from their homes into the streets in capital Kathmandu, and also in India’s capital Delhi. The quake struck around 83 kilometres east of Kathmandu and comes just weeks after another devastating earthquake which killed thousands. Oxfam’s Humanitarian Director, Jane Cocking, has just returned from Nepal and is monitoring developments on the ground from the UK.
