At least 18 people died and more than two dozen others were injured after a passenger bus travelling from Pokhara to Kathmandu plunged into the Trishuli River in Nepal’s Dhading district early Monday.
The bus, carrying more than 35 passengers, fell into the river near Gajuri along the Prithvi Highway, about 90 km west of Kathmandu, at around 1.15–1.30 am. The crash site is at Chinadhara near Charaundi in ward 3 of Benighat Rorang Rural Municipality.
