The death toll1 from this weekend's massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Nepal has surpassed 25-hundred.

Aftershocks from the quake are said to be hindering attempts to rescue those who may still be trapped under the rubble2.

The number of injured nationwide has climbed to 5,900 so far.

Nepalese doctors have set up makeshift operating theatres as they work round the clock to treat the wounded.

Rescue missions and aid from around the world have started arriving to help cope with the aftermath of the worst earthquake to hit Nepal for more than 80 years.

The 62-member Chinese search and rescue team, along with six dogs, is in Nepal's capital Kathmandu.

On Sunday afternoon, the Chinese team spent four hours rescuing a teenager who had been trapped for one day in northwestern Kathmandu.

The teenager was finally taken out of danger and remain in stable condition.

Rescuers have also found another seven people trapped in the debris3 in the nearby area and the rescues expected to last for hours.
