Nepal Flash Floods Kill Over 600, India Sends Aid as Rescue Efforts ContinuePreviousNext

Devastating flash floods in Nepal's Rasuwa district have killed over 600 people and left nearly 2,500 missing, including more than 300 Indian nationals. India has prioritized relief efforts, sending rescue teams, medical aid, and Bailey bridges, while coordinating with Nepal and China. Nepal's government leads rescue operations despite offers of foreign assistance, with concerns over fresh flooding delaying efforts. Families of missing individuals, including NRIs, await news amid ongoing search and rescue missions.
