Nepal flash flood surges downstream, raising concerns for India’s Gandak river system | GPlus

Описание: A sudden flash flood has wreaked havoc along Nepal’s Bhote Koshi River today after a massive surge of water flowed in from Tibet, severely impacting Timure and Syabrubesi.

Roads, villages and hydropower projects have been damaged, while rescue teams continue to search for those affected. The army, police and helicopters have been deployed, with several people airlifted to safety.

Authorities have issued alerts along the Trishuli River, urging residents to move to higher ground as the floodwaters move downstream towards the Gandak river system in India.

Experts are now investigating whether a glacial lake outburst in Tibet triggered the sudden surge, as no major rainfall was reported locally.

With the waters moving downstream, how far could the impact spread?
