Nepal: Landslides Cause Further Destruction After Devastating Floods.

Nepal: Following devastating floods in Nepal, landslides have now caused further destruction, with buildings reportedly being swept into rivers within moments.
Destruction Worsens
After last month’s devastating floods, landslides continue to hit mountainous areas of Nepal. Several buildings and settlements have reportedly been buried under debris or swept away by rivers.
According to local sources, roads, bridges and other infrastructure have been severely damaged by the landslides, while relief and rescue operations are also facing difficulties.
Rescue Operations Underway
The Nepalese government and international aid organizations are continuing search and rescue operations in the affected areas.
A Warning for Pakistan
The ongoing destruction in Nepal also highlights the risks faced by mountainous regions of Pakistan, particularly Gilgit-Baltistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where climate-related changes, glacier melt and landslides are increasing risks to communities and infrastructure.
