From today's news.

An outstandingly good, indeed heartbreaking, CNN report showed British Chinooks at villages where up to now there has still been NO aid of any kind yet...

Many people - mostly children - are now suffering amputations and worse as a consequence of untreated (relatively) minor injuries.

A total of 3 million people are displaced.

A report in The Guardian indicates that a total of only 78 helicopters are currently operating in the region.
