The scenes from nepal are heartwrenching with bodies being pulled from the rubble after saturday us earthquake. The final toll is likely to be higher than the current poll. This report has been sent from kathmandu, and it contains disturbing images. This was once a guesthouse northwest of kathmandu. In the basement was a restaurant. Remember, the earthquake struck around midday last saturday. The earth moved as people ordered lunch. This is one of the diners, and so are these. It is thought around 100 people were in the building, and the one behind it, at the time that they collapsed. With a handful of bodies recovered, others must be into tier others must be inside here. They hope that they may be lucky today, and pull out someone still breathing. There is no question there are more bodies down there. You can smell the stench of human remains. I was talking to one of the rescue guides who was saying they are never without help. There can always be an air pocket where someone is still breathing. This is a recovery operation, but it could also be a recovery operation for someone that is still alive. Miracles do happen. This was the scene here yesterday when a woman in her 40s was liberated from the wreckage. She is barely conscious, weary. A rescuer is told to hold her hand and she is carefully taken away. A precious find among the rubble. She is my daughterinlaw, the woman says. We are reunited. These moments leave everyone hoping. Soon, it will be british rescue teams in the dirt trying to find survivors. The dogs and their handlers are from International Search and rescue made up of british firefighters. Going out and doing a recon of the area outside kathmandu. At the collapsed restaurant the rain came. The rescue teams pulled out. If there are survivors in the rubble they will have to wait a little longer. That could be the difference between life and death. This man was close to the end very under the rubble, surrounded by corpses with no food or water. Sheer willpower kept him alive. Have been under the building for more than two and a half days. As thousands of bed down in the open air for the night, they are thankful for life. Katty reporting on the rescue operation in kathmandu. The earthquake also caused an an avalanche on Mount Everest. All of those who survived have been rescued they were at the mountains camp one when the disaster happened. The first part in climbing mount i Mount Everest is getting through the ice wall. It is known as one of the most dangerous bits. By the time you get to the top you are exhausted. Going along was, you are falling from one leg to the other. We arrived at camp one, i just put my bag inside the tent, and everything started to move. It felt as though it felt as though the glacier was sliding off the mountain and we were on its back. The entire mountain came to life. Pieces of ice as big as houses are coming toward you. Behind us is a crevice. Ive come close to being shot before. Ive come close to explosions. That was the closest i have come to accepting, i am going to die. It lasted 40 seconds by itself then the avalanches started. It is a feeling of entrapment. We learned that our Home Base Camp was gone. That was my tent. It was just gone. Absolutely obliterated. You go over the next ridge and it is worse, over the next ridge, it is worse. You are walking in a daze thinking, this is my home, where im supposed to spend the next four weeks. Nothing is left. The mountain is supposed to be dangerous, but base camp is supposed to be safe. The tower this natural catastrophe is job dropping. Katty Thomas Martienssen , he has seen a lot, and that was terrifying. National guard troops are patrolling baltimore.

This follows the funeral of a black man who died from spinal injuries and police custody. The remnants of buildings are still smoldering in baltimore. The people were assessing the building and uniting to clean it up. We all live in Baltimore City together. What is the point in destroying it . The violence followed days of protests after the death of freddie gray, a black man who died after being taken into police custody. This was not a freddie gray protest. What it was was arson destruction, and running battles with the police. Officers were injured. Many of those involved were school students. One woman was found beating her son and many feel there are underlying issues that need to be addressed that young people cannot be entirely blamed for. We cannot just leave this to the police. There are Police Departments that have to do soulsearching i think there are communities that have to do soulsearching but we, as a country, have to do some soulsearching. Security forces have been pouring onto the city streets determined to control the situation. It is clear after the first week of protesting that the police were trying to let the protesters expressed their anger. After last 24 hours a different tactic will be in play. The worry is the site of this militarization on the streets in this anxious time will lead to more confrontation, not less. Abc news, in baltimore. Katty the military in nigeria has rescue 200 girls and 90 women. Those rescued do not seem to be the schoolgirls abducted one year ago. They were free during military operations against boko haram, driving them out of the area. President obama rolled out the red carpet for visiting japanese Prime Minister abe. All of the pomp and ceremony of an official state as it. How times have changed since japan and the United States were at her world war ii enemies. It is a chance for the two to celebrate deeper defense and economic ties, and to refocus americas attention on the asian pacific. Barack obama has been trying to shift American Resources and attention away from the middle east to asia, but he has struggled to do that. He is trying to reboot that, starting with this visit. There will be others by asian leaders, including the chinese president later in the year. A cornerstone of that is Security Cooperation between the u. S. And japan. They announced a boost in ties amid territorial disputes from china and their neighbors. President obama we are concerned about the reconstruction activities in the south china sea. We are united in the freedom of navigation, respect for international law, and the priest and the peaceful resolution without disputes. They are not trying to provoke beijing or excluded. They try to push forward a trade pact involving 12 nations. Prime minister abe said they made progress on sticking points. U. S. Lawmakers will have something to say about that. On wednesday Prime Minister abe will try to win over congress as he becomes the first japanese Prime Minister to address a joint session of congress. Katty for more on Prime Minister of on the Prime Ministers visit im joined by the former ambassador to japan. To what extent was this really about china . Everything is about china in northeast asia. This is a big business, there is no question. The defense guidelines announced yesterday that were agreed upon between the United States and japan are breathtaking in the changes they are making to the relationship. The socalled collective selfdefense announcement that the japanese are ready to come to the aid of an American Ship or missile that has been lashed against the United States is a big deal. Our treaty is not reciprocal. We are required to come to the aid of the japanese but the japanese have not been required to come to our aid. Katty we heard the Prime Minister and the president ball over backward to say that this was not a provocation to pyongyang or beijing. I hope they do not see it that way. It is a deterrent. The mortar turns you have in northeast asia, the safer everyone is the more deterrence you have in northeast asia, the safer everyone is. You dont want anyone to be irrational. We do not want to have a war in northeast asia, we want to prevent one. These are two leaders have said that today, and will say it again tomorrow, that when the United States and japan are allied it makes all of northeast asia safer. Katty the other thing the Prime Minister was asked about is Something Congress will be watching during his address tomorrow what he says about the second world war. He was asked if it was not an opportunity to apologize for the council, does that make the japanese Prime Ministers life easier if you made an apology for what japan did during the second world war. Ive literally lost count of how many times they have apologized. The apologies have been met with , very insincere is what was claimed. The Prime Minister is saying that japan has been a model citizen or 70 years, that should count for something. That is history as well. The secret to the United States s and japans relationship is that we are looking forward, not to the past. We can talk about the past, but we have not done that, and because we have not done that we have been able to do something in the future. If we can get people to talk about the future instead of the past we will be better off. Katty you are watching bbc world news america. Still to come, seeking refuge from the Islamic State.

Katty before we go we wanted to show you something more peaceful. A canadian photographer has spent his 30s traveling around north america photographing the land scape. The photographers new book, by rail and see things together the images. In the day i make very few photographs. Maybe 1, 2 or three. I see a place to be and then i come back. I am conarroe and my book is called by rail and sea. I am imagining that this type of nostalgia looking back. The railway seemed like an ideal way to discuss the north american civilization. North america and canada about along the railways. The railway was used to open up front here, open up the west. In canada the railway was used to join the pacific and atlantic oceans. Theres one called canal in cleveland, ohio. Before the railway it was all river traffic in the northeast. The railway laid across it. The freeway is laid across that. It is very telling. The coastline is where north american civilization, as we know it, began. When the europeans stepped across the threshold from ocean to land. From the coastline ic and i see an important measure of the physical space we occupied. In terms of each photograph, im quite conscious of time. The photograph holds a time that never exactly existed. The light was one way when i began the photograph, and over the course of 10 minutes, the sun has said the sky changes color, the lights go on and off but it is already registered as an instant. I like the interplay between these two ideas. A vast romance of sunset to sunrise. The arbitrary on and off of a street light. Katty very soothing work that Scott Conarroe has is bringing this program to a close. I am katty kay, from all of us thank you for watching and tune in tomorrow.
