China and Nepal Respond to Flash Flood Dispute Amid Relief EffortsPreviousNext

A flash flood originating near the Gyirong-Rasuwagadhi border caused significant casualties and damage in Nepal and China. Nepalese journalists criticized China for not providing early warnings, which they say worsened the disaster's impact. China denied these claims, attributing the flood to a geological dam collapse on the Nepali side and rejecting allegations of failing to alert Nepal. Both sides emphasized ongoing cooperation and relief efforts to aid recovery in the affected Himalayan border region.
