Nepal says no more foreign rescue teams needed in quake search

KATHMANDU (Reuters) - Nepal has told aid agencies it did not need more foreign rescue teams to come and help in the search for earthquake survivors, because its government and military could cope, the national head of the United Nations Development Programme told Reuters.

"The search and rescue will go on but the message they wanted us to relay was they have enough to deal with it," Jamie McGoldrick said. The message was conveyed by the Nepali government and military to aid agencies at a meeting on Tuesday afternoon.
