Just two hours after a 7.8 magnitude earthquake shook Nepal, rescuers remove a trapped doctor from a collapsed hotel in the Thamel section of Kathmandu. A group of foreign tourists spent the two hours before this moment smashing through a steel-reinforced concrete wall that had trapped the man.

A woman in a Dhaka slum lets down her hair after a long day doing chores.

The scene is crowded, dirty and sometimes hints at chaos, with many families camped in cheap tents along the streets. Others sleep on the ground.
