A devastating 7.1-magnitude earthquake has torn through Tibet and Nepal, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. More than 120 lives have been lost, and thousands more have been injured, trapped under collapsed structures, or displaced.
Entire villages in the remote Himalayan region have been reduced to rubble, with over 3,600 homes destroyed and 30,000 people left without shelter. The survivors now face freezing winter temperatures, plummeting to well below zero, with limited access to food, medical care, and protection from the bitter cold.
This tragedy has hit a region already burdened by isolation and political oppression. Tibet, a land of immense spiritual and cultural significance, remains one of the most restricted areas in the world, with its people suffering under decades of occupation, terror, and state-sponsored violence. While much of the world has otherwise turned a blind eye to Tibet's plight, this earthquake presents an opportunity for action.
This is a test of our shared humanity. The wealthiest nations in the world have the resources to make a difference. They just have to decide to act.
