Heavy Rainfall Raises Landslide and Flood Risks in Nepal Amid Recovery Efforts
Heavy rainfall in Nepal has raised fresh risks of landslides, flooding, and debris flows, complicating recovery efforts from the August 26 Bhotekoshi floods that killed over 1,450 people and left around 5,600 missing. Authorities have issued alerts, activated disaster response mechanisms, and warned of disruptions to key highways and infrastructure, especially in already affected areas. The Department of Hydrology and Meteorology forecasts continued heavy rain through the weekend, urging vigilance in vulnerable regions.
