Heavy flooding and landslides triggered by a magnitude 5.2 seismic event and glacial collapse along the Himalayan border have killed at least 1,127 people across Nepal, emergency services confirmed. Search and rescue personnel from international military and specialized civilian teams are racing against time to reach thousands of missing residents and hundreds of trapped hydroelectric plant workers. Floodwaters tore through river valleys, destroying at least eleven hydropower facilities and sweeping away roads and bridges. Prime Minister Balendra Shah highlighted the event as a severe climate change disaster, calling for enhanced global environmental action and emergency infrastructure rebuilding assistance.
