On Saturday, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake shook the country of Nepal. The United Nations says the quake affected 8.1 million people, with death tolls rising near 5,000 and 1.4 million people seeking food assistance. While the country is still in the process of rescuing, rebuilding, and bracing through aftershocks, some progress is finally being made. News Watch spoke with the Kubiceks, a family from Kansas, Illinois, currently in Kathmandu for work. Many friends and family members were rattled when they heard about the earthquake, but were more than relieved to hear the family is okay.
