retrieve them. The dead are traditionally cremated on funeral pyres in Hindu-majority Nepal, so the burials are viewed as long-term storage until families can retrieve them. Foreign Secretary Amrit Bahadur Rai told reporters that all those buried were carefully recorded, but also appealed for international support, saying Nepal needed "more than a thousand" freezer units to store bodies. The announcement of the burials came as Nepal's disaster ministry increased its toll again on Sunday to 752 bodies recovered and 2,502 people missing. That list includes 589 foreigners unaccounted for. (Bssnews)
