The death toll has surged past 3800 and is certain to climb even higher. As the world scrambles to help nepal hospitals overflow with the injured and supplies of medicine are dwindling. Cnns dr. Sanjay gupta is in kathmandu kathmandu. Hes lending his surgical skills to this crisis. He joins us now by phone. I understand youve already performed surgery, sanjay . Yeah thats right, carol. I mean its one of these situations where the demand for care is outpacing the supply. So literally, an extra set of hands, someone to perform a neurosurgical procedure in this case necessary. Thats whats happening here. They have a lot of injured. And immediately after the earthquake as you might imagine there were many injured. Then there was a lull for a little bit. And they thought maybe the worst was over. But thats when the rescue missions which youve been talking about were ongoing and those patients started to make their way into the hospital today as well. Today was one of the busiest days so far of these last few days. Its expected to continue that way over the next several. But, yes, carol, i think theres i was performing an operation because they asked me to. But its a little bit of an idea of whats happening here. An 8yearold girl who had rubble that fell on her head, her house literally collapsed all around her. Her brother was injured, as well. He had fractures of his legs. Her parents for awhile their whereabouts were not known. But the good news is a little bit of good news is the parents were found. And the little girl is doing very well, carol. Are the hospitals absolutely overflowing, sanjay . Yeah you know theres two situations first of all one of the big hospitals here is 120 years old. When the earthquake happened there was a lot of concern about would it even be able to sustain itself . Im certain with all the aftershocks, some of them quite large, they just decided to move these patients to another building. A building that wasnt in fact a hospital. And wasnt functioning as a hospital. So you know they have to find they have to make place for patients wherever they can. Theyre performing operations in rooms that arent sipically used for operations. And right now im in a tent city outside where so many people are living. Thousands of people all around me here living not necessarily because their homes are destroyed but because theyre worried that they could be still with these tremors that are ongoing. Going back to that little girl that you performed surgery on. Did you have the right surgical tools to be able to do that . Somewhat. You know whats interesting is that they do have generator power in this particular hospital. The facility functioning as a hospital. The problem is its very unclear how long that power is going to last. So they dont use it for things like particular operations that may require a lot of power. Theyre trying to keep the breathing machines the ventilators, the lights on all that sort of stuff. So we had to use more rudimentary tools than we otherwise would use. But it was enough to get the operation done. Tools that people have used in war zone settings and Natural Disaster settings in the past and its what we did here again as well. All right dr. Sanjay gupta thank you so much. The hospital scramble to save the living rescuers are finding new signs of life amid the rubble. The work is gruelling, painstaking and often heartbreaking. Earlier on Cnn International we heard from one trekking guide who joined the rescue effort in kathmandu. This is one of the main squares, the palace squares in kathmandu which attracts a lot of tourists. These are all very old structures hundreds of years old, and its completely gone down. But initial efforts they brought in the excavator to dig out as many bodies today weve been digging with our hands and trying to find out more survivors. Behind that temple over there is another very famous structure, which is completely down. There are suspicions that there are people underneath. Weve been trying to get them to cry for help and weve been digging along trying to rescue them out. Have you come across have you found any survivors . Well today itself they pulled out at least two or three bodies from towards my left. Towards my right there is just behind this where the excavator is digging theres another temple thats in ruins and people are digging with their hands and shovels. We think that our few people at least one person there because we heard a small, faint voice, about an hour ago but weve been trying to find them. They havent weve not seen them yet. Just so tragic. A lot of humanitarian aid is necessary. Arwa damon has that part of the story. Were just speaking with some of these kids and their families. Theyve all come to get treatment at this mobile clinic here. And a lot of them are camped out in this park. The vast majority of the families here consider themselves to be the lucky ones. They managed to survive. All of them describing the horrific moments that the earthquake struck describing how the ground trembled. And this right now is the only place where they really feel safe because of all of the aftershocks that have taken place. People quite simply are too afraid to risk going back home. Even if they do have a home that has not been damaged. Because of the reality of the fact that there could be many more aftershocks no one is really sure what is taking place. Here in the park theyre saying that there are bathrooms that they can use, that they are receiving a certain level of assistance when it comes to food and water. But, of course if this continues for a long time there are going to be concerns about basic services and keeping the whole camp sanitary. You see encampments like this throughout the entire city. On a much smaller scale, but people waiting for whatever reassurance it is that theyre going to need to be able to eventually go back home. Arwa damon, cnn, kathmandu. All right.

His Funeral Service will be held in a couple of hours. 15 days after the baltimore man was first arrested by police suffering a fatal spinal cord injury in the process, the questions surrounding mr. Grays death prompting protests and multiple investigations. Three white house officials including cabinet secretary broaddrick johnson are expected to atrend the service. Theyll be joined by the Group Families united for justice. They include the families of eric garner and amadou diallo and others who died under questionable circumstances. Cnns athena jones in baltimore for you. Speaking of those questionable circumstances there are still a lot of Unanswered Questions about how freddie gray came to be so severely injured during that police van ride two weeks ago. But today the focus is on honoring his memory and saying goodbye to him. Grays family has asked that there not be any protests today. This after that largely peaceful demonstration on saturday ended in violence. There were skirmishes, vandalism, Six Police Officers suffered minor injuries. A lot of supporters have been saying that they need the time and the space to heal after this incident and that protests that can become violent, those end up being distractions. One people who said that is congressman Elijah Cummings. He represents about half of the city of baltimore. And hell be one of the speakers at todays service. Yesterday he spoke emotionally about the toll this incident has taken not just on grays family but on the Baltimore Community as a whole. He told me he wants to see the Baltimore Police department make changes so that it can become a Model Department for the country. And he also talked about the importance of improving Police Community relations. Lets take a listen. I do believe that this is for this generation this is the civil rights cause. Respect from the authorities like the police. They shouldnt have to fight that fight. But theyre fighting it. And so it pains me that they have to go through that. And so there you heard him say that its the Police Community relations is the civil rights cause of this generation. We could hear echoes of that theme in his remarks today. As you mentioned several white house officials will also be in attendance. We expect a lot of emotion and perhaps some Straight Talk about the kind of changes that need to take place to avoid this kind of incident from happening again. All as the family and friends of freddie gray gather to say goodbye. We just saw the hearse pull up a few minutes ago so this will all be getting under way in just another couple of hours or so. Athena jones reporting live from baltimore. As you heard her say the family of freddie gray is asking for a halt in the protests as they prepare to bury mr. Gray. That request comes as 35 people were arrested over the weekend in scuffles that followed a week of Peaceful Demonstrations. The mayor of baltimore addressing the citys residents and appealing for a sense of unity. At the end of the day, we are one baltimore. We need to support Peaceful Demonstrations and continue to enforce in our communities, violence and looting will not be tolerated. I want to bring in reverend jim obrien pastor of the empowerment temple church. Hell deliver mr. Grays eulogy in just a few hours. Welcome. Thank you. Good morning. Good morning. I suspect it was difficult for you to come up with the right words to say about mr. Gray. Not difficult at all. He was a young man who was in the prime of his life just 25 all he had in front of him was his future. And his family is mourning and overwhelmed by it but i pray today they get some closure. Are you going to say are you going to say some words are you going to address the city of baltimore, too, and the unity that the mayor spoke about . Absolutely. I think that this has really been a drawing board for all of us. East and west baltimore coming to the. Youre going to see a reflection and evidence of that on today. But the focus will be primarily on the family. But we still march on. We still realize that we still have to deal and address this issue after the funeral is over. And so were going to keep marching albeit peaceably. Youre not asking that people not protest. But you also say the bible is clear, sin not. What message do you want to send to the city of baltimore . The scripture says be angry but sin not. That you have a right to have righteous indignation, to be upset, and have a right to vent that. Weve called for no protests on today. Tomorrow were going to be doing a town hall meeting, at our church for people to come to voice and to express their grievance. But then to talk about strategy. What is the next step . How do we begin the healing process . Not just for the family but for the entire city. We still have an issue with a broken and a corrupt Police Department that has to be addressed headon. The mayor and the Police Commissioner said outside agitators were responsible for the looting and the broken windows in police cars over the weekend. Who are those outside agitators . I really dont know. And i dont know whether its outside agitators or the evidence of internal frustration. A lot of baltimoreans are upset and flustered about how policing has taken place here in the city of baltimore. So many Unanswered Questions. If there was no charges, why was he even in the Police Vehicle . And if there were no charges, taking him to the precinct what was to be done . And so those kinds of questions are going to have to be answerable both by the mayor and the Police Commissioner. And is there a message that you want to send to the people who were violent over the weekend . Yes. That we are not going to in any way besmirch the name the legacy of freddie gray. That were seeking out justice for justice never comes at the hands of violence. It is not ours to seek out revenge but to seek out justice. And we believe that justice it going to be served and the city of baltimore is going to be better because of it. Reverend jamal bryant thanks so much for being with me. I appreciate it. Thank you.
