Severe floods and mudslides have devastated the border region between Nepal and China, specifically impacting areas including Gyirong on the Tibetan side and Devighat in Nepal. Footage from the disaster captures the sudden onset of the flash flood as a dark wall composed of water, mud, rocks, ice, and stones rapidly surges past buildings.

In the aftermath of the catastrophe, survivors have taken refuge in temporary camps set up at local schools, such as in Devighat. Displaced families and children are currently relying on humanitarian assistance, including donated clothing, as they begin the process of rebuilding their lives following the destructive inundation.
