Le SoirLO·NP·2 days ago
A catastrophic flash flood in Nepal has killed at least 1,410 people, with over 6,100 still missing and 13,756 rescued. The scale of casualties and displacement indicates a major humanitarian crisis, though the exact extent of damage and ongoing rescue operations remain uncertain. This event underscores the region's vulnerability to climate-driven extreme weather and will likely strain national response capacities.
