A catastrophic flash flood has swept through parts of the Himalayan border region between Nepal and China’s Tibet, leaving behind widespread destruction and raising fears that the death toll and extent of the damage could rise further.
According to authorities, the powerful surge of floodwaters tore through villages and severely damaged critical infrastructure, including roads, bridges and power projects across the mountainous region.

The disaster has also left some areas difficult or impossible to reach, complicating ongoing rescue and relief efforts. With roads and bridges damaged or washed away, authorities and emergency teams are facing significant challenges as they work to assess the full scale of the devastation and reach people who may still be stranded or in need of assistance.
Officials are bracing for the possibility of additional casualties and more extensive damage as assessments continue.
