What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

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.
