When we've spoken to some of the industry bodies, our Nepali service there has spoken to the president of the private electricity generation industry group there in Nepal.
They have said that they're worried about all the workers they have operating in some of these hydropower plants, for example.
There are lots of companies who
transport a lot of goods through that area as well trucks that are located hundreds of trucks that are located and passed through that area people are still trying to get in touch with their workers there as well so again we're trying to piece together as much information as we can but when you look at those pictures that you're referring to that's why people are so worried
Global News Podcast · State of emergency declared in Myanmar after huge earthquake · 28 Mar 2025

Es ist ein riesiges Territorium. 56.000 Menschen leben hier, aber es ist die größte Insel der Welt. Und eines der Dinge, die hier für die Vereinigten Staaten wirklich wichtig sind, ist der Fakt, dass es riesige Mengen von unabhängigen Ressourcen auf dieser Insel gibt. Vor allem spreche ich über Ölreserven und Mineralreserven, die natürlich wichtig für advanced technologies global sind.
Now, Greenlanders, as you mentioned, are unhappy. They have pushed back a lot against this visit. And that's meant that the visit has changed markedly from the bells and whistles, cultural fun affair that it was supposed to be to something far more perfunctory. Mr. Vance, the Vice President, and his wife, Usha, will be visiting the military space base in the northwest of the island.
And they'll be joined also by Mike Waltz, National Security Advisor, and also the Energy Secretary, Chris Wright. Now, as your previous guest mentioned, there is a defense treaty between the United States and Denmark, signed in the 1950s, which means that the United States can, if it wants, expand itself internationally.
Does anyone in Greenland seriously believe that President Trump will take over the island? I don't think it's a matter of seriously believing or not seriously believing. I think Greenlanders are very, very upset by this. I've Greenland is not for sale. They say they feel very uneasy about the political agenda that they believe is behind this visit.
Now, Greenland has a very complicated relationship with Denmark. Of course, it is a semi-autonomous region of Denmark. And it's trying in its way to move further and further forward. Vielen Dank. Mariam Mashiri
Information has been very difficult to get because this is in a remote area with very limited mobile phone coverage. Even families who are trying to reach those on board are having difficulty. But the information we do have has so far been from security sources.
Now, we have also spoken to a railway police officer who said he was standing guard and witnessed militants firing rockets at the train when the attack happened. He said he and other security officials also fired back for nearly an hour and a half before they were caught. And he claims he saw dozens of dead bodies with attackers killing both military personnel and civilians.
Now, again, this is not something that we've been able to independently verify personally. But this is testimony from an eyewitness rather than just the security sources who have been releasing information. So it's giving us a bit more of a picture. And it also is a reminder that this is very much an active operation. The Baloch Liberation Army, the separatist militant group,
that has claimed this attack, claims that it is still in control of the train. And as far as what we've been able to gather, the BBC has seen a carriage that was loaded with empty wooden coffins at Quetta railway station. And official sources have told us that it was headed towards the nearest railway station to the hijacking.
And so as all of this is happening, the information is still being tightly controlled, but we are getting a sense of of the situation and clearly it's still very much an ongoing one with a lot at stake.
Well, it's not from official statements. It's from security sources who have been releasing some of this information unofficially to local journalists. You're right to point out how complicated it is to get independently verified information when it comes to this story.
But a lot of this, with a context that's really important to keep in mind, is that this is a militant group that has been calling for an independent Balochistan and has been behind many deadly incidents in this province in the last few years.
Ahmad geht uns durch seine Nachbarschaft.
Er sagt, er hat früher für eine westliche Charite in Afghanistan gearbeitet und war in den letzten Phasen eines US-Resettlungsprogramms. Zwei Wochen zuvor, als er aus dem Shop war, hat er einen Anruf bekommen. Es war seine Tochter's Voice on the line.
Ahmad hatte seine Visa gestärkt, aber seine Frau wartete noch. Die Polizei sagte, sie müsse sie und ihr Kind in den Haji-Kamp nehmen, wo viele Afghans in Islamabad und Raalpindi gehalten werden. Er hat sich entschieden, mit ihnen zu gehen. Er zeigt mir ein Video, ähnlich zu dem, das andere Afghans mir gesendet haben. In dem sind Männer, Frauen und Kinder weggefahren.
Wir sind hier in der Haji-Kampe, um zu versuchen, einige der Berichte, die wir hören, zu beurteilen. Aber die Offiziere und die Polizei hier werden uns nicht einlassen. Der pakistanische Regierung behauptet, dass niemand während des Repatriationsprozesses verletzt wird.
