Chinese Relief Supplies Arrive In Nepal
“At the request of the Nepalese government, relief personnel and supplies from the Chinese humanitarian agency People’s Reprieve have begun arriving in the capital city Kathmandu. A magnitude 7.9 earthquake occurred on April 25th, 2015 with an epicenter 80 kilometers northwest of the capital.
Fourteen days earlier on May 1st, personnel from Doctor’s without Borders and the Red Cross began evacuating critically injured and distributing relief supplies as well as constructing makeshift facilities and mobile clinics.
Nepal’s closest neighbor was also quick to respond; almost immediately India began Operation: Maitri providing rescue operations and disaster relief supplies with its own armed forces.
On April 29th, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott issued a statement; pleading for the People’s Republic of China and the United States to put aside their differences for the benefit and aid of the citizens of Nepal.
The United States and China have been engaged in a multi-year conflict on the Korean peninsula. The conflict which initially began in 2006 between South Korea, its military allies the United States and North Korea quickly escalated to a regional war when China intervened militarily on behalf of North Korea.”

India Joins Ban on US Poultry
“India has officially joined the growing worldwide ban on United States poultry and egg imports. Thirteen confirmed cases have been reported across India, including two at poultry factories outside Delhi and five in Northern areas of the country. In total between all factories over one million Chickens were destroyed.
The highly contagious and potentially lethal variant of Avian Influenza also known as (H5N2) has caused mass fear of a global Avian Epidemic. Import bans include: China, Canada, Mexico, Hong Kong, Angola, Russia, Cuba, Taiwan, South Korea and Guatemala.
As if to complicate matters worse, India has officially recalled over nearly half a million civilian and military rations en route to earthquake survivors in neighboring Nepal over fear of a potential Botulism contamination. Disease control agents from the Chinese military have been working closely with Nepalese officials to test Nepalese poultry for fear the disease may spread.”

Chinese Military Expands Air Identification Zone
“The Chinese military has announced it is expanding it's Air Identification Zone to include disputed areas of the East China Sea and areas extremely close to the borders of Bangladesh and Burma in south east Asia. The Identification Zone reportedly crosses the already established borders of Nepal, however that has yet to be confirmed.
Part of the areas in question covered by the expansion include extremely disputed islands in the East China Sea. The Chinese government is engaging in a type of artificial island program on these islands, why has yet to be explained. Geologists and oceanographers are concerned about possible risks to the ecosystem and environment.
If the Chinese military do expand air defense zones to include the areas in question, all aircraft entering or exiting the areas are required follow all instructions ordered by the Chinese Air Force or risk being forced to land. The Indian and Burmese government have denounced the expansion by China calling it a 'Risk to our national security and a blow to global sovereignty.'"

Foreign Aid Workers Found Dead
"Fifteen foreign aid workers have been found dead in Nepal while attempting to deliver food and basic supplies to people displaced by the 2015 earthquake that struck Nepal earlier this year. The Indian and Chinese governments were quick to respond to crisis along with other nations and countless NGO's.
Five Canadians, eight British, and two French aid workers are dead as the result of a night-time attack on a aid convoy in rural Nepal. The vehicles were found by the Indian military while during a predawn search for displaced civilians, their vehicles riddled with bullet holes and smoldering on the edge of the road. At this time it is not known who the attackers were or the aid workers were targeted, however desperate, suffering people and unidentified guerrilla groups are suspected."
