12,000 dead, missing in quake-hit Japan
Hours before the world's third-largest economy opened for business on Monday, a grim-faced Prime Minister Naoto Kan described the crisis as Japan's worst since 1945.
The death toll in Japan's earthquake and tsunami will likely exceed 10,000 in one state alone, an official said Sunday, as millions of survivors were left without drinking water, electricity and proper food along the pulverized north-eastern coast.

Landslide Strike Zhouqu (China)
At midnight on Sunday, August 8th, a temporary lake caused by a recent landslide broke loose above the town of Zhouqu, in Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, China.Flood In Pakistan (پاکستان میں سیلاب)
It is only the start of the monsoon season, but already Pakistan is experiencing some of the worst flooding it has seen in over 80 years. Entire villages have been washed away, an early estimate of over 1,600 deaths so far and over 2 million displaced or otherwise affected. Not only is the immediate water damage causing havoc, the floods have inundated crop-producing areas, dealing a crippling blow to the agricultural-based economy and threatening a food crisis. The Pakistani government now struggles to rescue and provide aid to millions - while still fighting with militant Islamist forces in many of the hardest-hit regions. With even more heavy rains predicted in the coming days, here are a handful of recent photographs of Pakistanis as they cope with this latest disaster.

Chile, Earthquake, nine days later
-->
Nine days after an 8.8-magnitude
earthquake killed hundreds of people in south-central Chile, relief
efforts were beginning to reach those in need, rescue missions became
recovery missions, and rebuilding is already under way. In the days
since the February 27th quake, nearly 150 aftershocks have been
recorded, including thirteen above magnitude 6.0. The government has
been criticized by Chileans, who say the response was slow and
inefficient. One recent government action was to grant a short amnesty
to looters before sending troops out in search of stolen goods. Nearly
$2 million worth of looted items were returned, often dumped on
roadsides, by Sunday. Collected here are photographs from the past week
in quake-affected Chile.
