A Bradford volunteer who helped deliver emergency aid to more than 1,000 victims of the Nepal earthquake has said this week's second quake has caused "nothing short of hell".
Salman Malik, 28, visited the disaster-hit country as part of a Humanity First UK medical team, having been involved with the charity as a fundraiser for the past four years.

Mr Malik, who lives in Bradford city centre and owns Print Plus UK in Bolling Road, had previously undergone disaster response training with the charity before his arrival in Katmandhu on April 29.
"There was lots of structural damage to the buildings, with people living in dens and under tarpaulins," he said yesterday.
