Earthquakes, Tsunami, Typhoons and Floods: 00008976-DSR-002

BALAKOT, PAKISTAN-NOVEMBER 7: A Pakistani barber shaves a man\'s face in his open air shop sitting amongst the rubble as life attempts to get back to normal in the devastated town of Balakot, November 7, 2005. A devastating earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale hit northern Pakistan and neighboring India leaving up to 3 million people homeless, killing almost 80,000. Rescue efforts were complicated by the remote mountainous landscape and the vast areas effected leaving the victims in desperate situations. In some areas, injured were trapped for days with little food and no shelter as roads were blocked by landslides. Aid agencies could barely grasp the enormity of this natural disaster, the worst in Pakistan\'s history.
