After enduring a harsh Himalayan winter in temporary shelters, survivors of the Kashmir earthquake are finally returning home. The quake struck north of Muzaffarabad in the Pakistan-administered disputed region of Kashmir in October last year. More than 73,000 people were killed, three million were left homeless. Many were given shelter in Islamabad. Now survivors are being encouraged by the Pakistani government to return to their villages. We follow Yunis Mohammed and his family on their emotional journey home to Panjkot.
