About Nepal’s Flash Flood

A devastating flash flood swept through Nepal’s Himalayan border region on Wednesday, leaving at least 165 people dead and hundreds more unaccounted for as rescue teams struggled to reach areas cut off by mud, debris and destroyed infrastructure.

What Triggered The Flash Flood?

The disaster originated around the Lhende River along the Nepal-Tibet border. An initial assessment by Nepal’s National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority indicated that a landslide involving ice and rock caused a sudden surge of debris-laden water.

PM Modi spoke to Prime Minister Balendra Shah and conveyed his condolences over the loss of lives in the floods. He said India was ready to provide “all possible humanitarian assistance” and that the two countries’ teams were coordinating on rescue and relief efforts.

“The people of India stand in solidarity with their sisters and brothers in Nepal at this difficult time,” Prime Minister Modi said.

The prime minister also said that India is ready to provide all possible humanitarian assistance to Nepal. “Our teams are coordinating closely on rescue and relief efforts,” he said.

The flash flood along the Nepal-Tibet border was caused by a landslide involving ice and rock, which led to a sudden surge of debris-laden water in the Lhende River. Preliminary satellite analysis suggests that part of a glacier collapsed at about 5,200 metres above sea level. An earthquake in the Tibetan region may have triggered an avalanche, which then caused the flood.

India has dispatched 10 tonnes of humanitarian assistance and essential medicines to Nepal to support its response to the devastating floods. The Indian Air Force has deployed aircraft for rescue and relief operations. More than 40 tonnes of relief and medical supplies have been sent to Nepal. An NDRF team is also carrying out rescue operations.

Gyirong Port in Tibet has been hit by a devastating flash flood. The immigration complex at Gyirong Port experienced chaos during the flood, with people seen fleeing as mud and water surged into the complex. The floodwaters were powerful enough to sweep away everything above the complex. Roads to the area are blocked and telecommunications have been disrupted.
