Nepal’s catastrophic floods have killed at least 1,050 people, while around 4,000 remain missing nearly a week after the Himalayan disaster. More than 11,000 people have been rescued, but hundreds remain stranded at damaged hydropower sites and nearly 300 workers are believed to be trapped inside tunnels. Rescue teams are using helicopters, heavy machinery and temporary bridges to reach isolated areas, with India, China and other international teams assisting the operation. The disaster has left more than 2.2 million tonnes of debris and caused widespread damage to roads, bridges, power infrastructure and communities across Nepal.

Nepal is facing a devastating flood disaster after massive flash floods swept through Himalayan valleys, killing more than 900 people and leaving thousands missing. The rescue mission has now turned into a desperate race against time, with around 933 hydropower workers unaccounted for across 11 projects. Hundreds are feared trapped inside flooded tunnels, with rescuers using heavy machinery and controlled blasts to reach them.
