Climbers caught in earthquake on Everest 25 APRIL 2015 @ 7:15 PM MOUNT EVEREST: Climbers on Mount Everest were caught in a deadly earthquake that struck Nepal today, an AFP reporter at the mountain said, with reports of a major avalanche hitting the world’s highest peak. AFP Nepal bureau chief Ammu Kannampilly said she was caught in the earthquake that ripped though large parts of the country leaving more than 100 people dead. “We got caught in an earthquake on Everest. We are both ok... snowing here so no choppers coming,” she said in an SMS on approach to base camp while on assignment. Two experienced mountaineers reported that panic erupted at base camp which was full of climbing teams and had been “severely damaged“, while one said the quake triggered a “huge avalanche.” “Running for life from my tent. Unhurt. Many many people up the mountain,” tweeted Romanian climber Alex Gavan who had been preparing to climb up nearby Lhotse, the world’s fourth highest mountain. Another climber Daniel Mazur said his team was trapped at camp one higher up the mountain in the wake of the earthquake. “A Massive earthquake just hit Everest. Basecamp has been severely damaged. Our team is caught in camp 1. Please pray for everyone,” he also tweeted. Everest was hit by an avalanche last year that killed 16 guides and triggered an unprecedented shut-down of the mountain. Some 700 climbers are in Solukhumbhu district that includes Everest, with 300 thought to be at base camp itself, deputy superintendent of police Chandra Dev Rai said. “We are trying to reach them to see if they are safe, but the phones are not working,” he told AFP from Solukhumbhu town through which climbers pass en route to the mountain.--AFP

An avalanche swept the face of Mount Everest after the massive earthquake struck Nepal on Saturday, killing at least ten people and leaving an unknown number missing and injured near the mountain's most dangerous spot, an official said.

The avalanche struck between the Khumbu Icefall, a notoriously treacherous rugged area of collapsed ice and snow, and the base camp where most climbing expeditions are, said Ang Tshering of the Nepal Mountaineering Association.

"We don't have the details yet, but 10 have been reported dead so far, including foreign climbers," said Gyanendra Shretha, an official with Nepal's mountaineering department.

Nepal's Home Ministry had earlier said that 30 people were injured at the base camp, while other climbers gave unconfirmed reports of more avalanches elsewhere on the mountain.

"We are starting to receive the injured, the most severe of them with many fractures, he was blown away by the avalanche and broke both legs. For the camps closer to where the avalanche hit, our Sherpas believe that a lot of people may have been buried in their tents," Danish climber Carsten Lillelund Pedersen wrote on Facebook. He and his Belgian companion, Jelle Veyt, were at the Khumbu Icefall, close to the base camp at an altitude of 5,000 meters (16,500 feet) when the earthquake hit.

He said that a steady flow of people were fleeing the base camp for more secure areas down the mountain.

UPDATED:
Over 900 killed in Nepal’s earthquake 25 APRIL 2015 @ 2:45 PM KATHMANDU:
A massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake killed more than 900 people today as it ripped through large parts of Nepal, toppling office blocks and towers in Kathmandu and triggering a deadly avalanche that hit Everest base camp. Officials said at least 876 people are known to have died in Nepal, making it the worst earthquake there in more than 80 years. But that the toll could be much higher, and more than two dozen people were also reported killed in neighbouring India, China and Bangladesh. "The toll from the earthquake has jumped to 876, including 524 from the Kathmandu valley," said police spokesman Kamal Singh Bam. "Rescue efforts are still under way. We fear that the toll might rise as we dig through the rubble." Emergency workers fanned out across the Himalayan nation to rescue those trapped under collapsed homes, buildings and other debris. "Deaths have been reported from all regions except the far west. All our security personnel have been deployed to rescue and assist those in need," Bam told AFP.
Officials said 10 people were killed when an avalanche buried parts of Mount Everest's base camp in Nepal where hundreds of mountaineers have gathered at the start of the annual climbing season. "We don't have the details yet, but 10 have been reported dead so far, including foreign climbers," Gyanendra Kumar Shrestha, an official in Nepal's tourism department, told AFP. "An avalanche from Mt. Pumori has hit the base camp, burying a part of it," Shrestha said earlier. "We are trying to assess how many are injured. There might be over 1,000 people there right now, including foreign climbers and Nepalese supporting staff." AFP Nepal bureau chief Ammu Kannampilly, on an assignment to Everest together with a colleague, was among those caught up in the chaos. "We are both ok...snowing here so no choppers coming," she said in an SMS on approach to base camp. "I hurt my hand - got it bandaged and told to keep it upright to stop the bleeding." Experienced mountaineers said panic erupted at base camp which had been "severely damaged", while one described the avalanche as "huge". "Huge disaster. Helped searched and rescued victims through huge debris area. Many dead. Much more badly injured. More to die if not heli asap," tweeted Romanian climber Alex Gavan from base camp. But the worst damage was reported in Kathmandu, where the historic nine-storey Dharahara tower, a major tourist attraction, was among the buildings brought down. At least a dozen bodies were taken away from the ruins of the 19th-century tower, according to an AFP photographer who saw similar scenes of multiple casualties in other parts of the city. "It was difficult to breath, but I slowly moved the debris. Someone then pulled me out. I don't know where my friends are," Dharmu Subedi, 36, who was standing outside the tower when it collapsed, said from a hospital bed. At least 34 people were known to have died in India, including 23 in the eastern state of Bihar, while buildings in the capital New Delhi had to be evacuated.
The United States Geological Survey said the shallow quake struck 77 kilometres (48 miles) northwest of Kathmandu at 0611 GMT, with walls crumbling and families racing outside their homes. "The walls of houses have collapsed around me onto the road. All the families are outside in their yards huddled together," an AFP reporter said in Kathmandu. Another resident, Anupa Shrestha, recounted scenes of panic and mayhem, saying "everything started shaking, everything fell down." The quake tore through the middle of highways in the capital and also caused damage to the country's only international airport which was briefly closed. Kari Cuelenaere, an official at the Dutch embassy, said the impact had swept the water out of a swimming pool at a Kathmandu hotel where Dutch national day was being celebrated. "It was horrible, all of a sudden all the water came up out of the pool and drenched everyone, the children started screaming," Cuelenaere told AFP. "Some parts of the city fell down, there was dust rising... There were many (rescue) helicopters." Aftershock tremors could be felt more than two hours after the initial quake. USGS initially measured the quake at 7.5 magnitude and later adjusted it to 7.8, with a depth of 15 kilometres. It said in a predictor graphic that there was a 17 percent chance the quake could claim more than 100,000 lives. India dispatched two military transport planes to help with the rescue and relief efforts and there were similar offers from around the region, including Sri Lanka and Pakistan. "We are in the process of finding more information and are working to reach out to those affected, both at home and in Nepal," Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in a tweet. China's official Xinhua news agency said that two people, including an 83-year-old woman, were killed in the Tibet region.
The earthquake was also felt across large areas of Bangladesh, triggering panic in the capital Dhaka as people rushed out onto the streets. In the garment manufacturing hub of Savar, on the outskirts of Dhaka, at least 50 workers were injured after the quake set off a stampede in a garment factory, according to the private Jamuna television. The area has a history of earthquakes, with a 6.8 magnitude quake that hit eastern Nepal in August 1988 killing 721 people. A magnitude 8.1 quake killed 10,700 people in Nepal and eastern India in 1934.--AFP

http://www.sinarharian.com.my/semasa/detik-cemas-pegawai-kedutaan-malaysia-di-nepal-1.383527



NEW DELHI - Seorang pegawai kedutaan Malaysia di  Nepal terpaksa mengharungi detik cemas selama dua hingga tiga minit apabila gempa bumi kuat berukuran 7.9 pada skala Richter menggegarkan ibu negara, Kathmandu hari ini.
   
Setiausaha Ketiga Mohamad Amin Wagiman, 51, terpaksa mengharungi cabaran hidup bersama empat petugas tempatan ketika melakukan kerja pejabat di bangunan empat tingkat kedutaan itu.
   
Bagaimanapun, beliau, yang menjaga hal ehwal imigresen dan perkhidmatan konsular, mengesahkan empat petugas Malaysia yang lain serta ahli keluarga masing-masing selamat dalam kejadian yang memgorbankan ratusan penduduk di ibu negara itu.
   
"Saya pernah mengharungi suasana gempa bumi dua tahun yang lepas di sini, tetapi masa itu tidak kuat seperti pada hari ini," katanya apabila dihubungi Bernama.
      
"Sebaik sahaja gegaran berhenti, saya dan kakitangan warga tempatan bergegas lari keluar dari bangunan ke kawasan lapang yang paling hampir.
   
"Walaupun berada di kawasan lapang, kami masih boleh rasa kesan gegaran," jelas beliau.
   
Mohamad Amin mengesahkan bangunan kedutaan mengalami keretakan tetapi tidak pasti sejauh mana tahap kerosakan bangunan itu.
   
Apabila gegaran terhenti, beliau bergegas pulang menaiki motosikal ke kediaman kakitangan yang terletak kurang lima kilometer daripada bangunan kedutaan dan bersyukur melihat wajah isterinya, Jamiah Salleh, 51, yang juga terselamat.
   
Beliau berkata sepanjang perjalanan ke rumahnya, beliau melihat banyak bangunan termasuk bangunan bersejarah yang ranap.
   
"Bangunan setinggi 15 tingkat di sebelah rumah saya pun sebahagiannya runtuh," katanya.
   
Mohamad Amin berkata hampir sejam beliau tidak dapat menggunakan telefon bimbitnya dan apabila talian pulih beliau menghubungi ahli keluarga untuk memberitahu beliau dan isteri selamat serta menghubungi kakitangan Malaysia yang yang lain untuk bertanya keadaan mereka.
   
Sementara itu, media di Nepal melaporkan antara bangunan yang runtuh dalam kejadian itu ialah bangunan kuil Hindu Dharahara yang terkenal dalam kalangan pelancong asing dan lebih 50 mangsa terperangkap dalam runtuhannya. -Bernama

The quake struck in what is known as the Indus-Yarlung suture zone, where the Indian subcontinent meets the Eurasian tectonic plate. The collision of the two, 40 million to 50 million years ago, gave rise to the Himalayas.

It is an area that has been the site of some of the region’s deadliest earthquakes, including one in Kashmir in 2005 that killed more than 80,000 people. A powerful earthquake also struck Nepal in 1934, causing mass casualties.
