Storm survivors hug each other on the banks of the river Paira during their first meeting after the storm in Mirzaganj, 310 km (193 miles) from the capital Dhaka, November 18, 2007. Grieving survivors and rescuers picked through the rubble left in the wake of a super cyclone that battered Bangladesh as the death toll reached over 2,200 on Sunday and a government official declared the disaster "a national calamity".
