What happened
Torrential flow in the Trishuli River system, resulting from ice collapse, has prompted warnings advising communities to relocate to Kathmandu. This event follows catastrophic floods that struck the Nepal-Tibet border a month prior, where over 1,400 people were killed and more than 5,500 remain unaccounted for. Homes near the Trishuli River in Nepal's Nuvakot district have been washed away.
