China has deployed the Fengyun-4C, described as the world’s most powerful geostationary weather satellite, to assist with flood relief efforts in Nepal. The satellite is being utilized to track severe thunderstorms and provide real-time meteorological intelligence to support ongoing search and rescue operations in the region.
This deployment follows a devastating glacier collapse that occurred in Nepal last month. By leveraging advanced satellite capabilities, the two nations aim to improve disaster response coordination and mitigate risks posed by continuing adverse weather conditions during the recovery phase.
