Chinese authorities have restored access to the G216 highway in the Gyirong border region following severe floods and landslides. The reopening of the route has enabled the deployment of heavy machinery and equipment to the disaster site, where a border inspection complex previously stood.

Rescue operations are currently underway as Chinese and Nepali teams search for hundreds of individuals reported missing in the wake of the natural disaster. The arrival of specialized equipment is intended to reinforce ongoing search efforts in the affected area.
