Quake victims scuffle for supplies as aid arrives

Trucks of aid arrived in the ruined capital of Pakistan-ruled Kashmir today, and victims scuffled for badly needed food and blankets three days after a devastating earthquake flattened whole communities, killing tens of thousands and leaving millions homeless.

US military helicopters helped ferry wounded people from the wrecked city of Muzaffarabad, while international rescue teams joined the search for survivors before the window of hope for finding people alive begins to close.
