A Flash Flood That Cut Off the Response
A flash flood swept down the Bhotekoshi River from the Tibetan side of the border into Nepal's Rasuwa district on the morning of August 26, moving through the settlements of Timure and Syabrubesi before continuing downstream into the Trishuli River and triggering high alerts in Nuwakot, Dhading, Gorkha and Chitwan districts. The surge arrived at around 9 a.m. local time.
