Nepal Floods Claim Over 1,200 Lives | Nigeria News

Nepal’s flash floods have claimed 1,222 lives with nearly 5,000 still missing as rescuers battle debris and destroyed infrastructure across eight districts—Chitawan hardest hit. A makeshift cable bridge built by the Nepal Army now serves as a vital lifeline for supplies and survivors. The disaster spilled into Tibet’s Gyirong county, killing 21 and leaving over 500 missing, prompting China to reopen a key highway for heavy rescue gear. Experts are linking decades of Himalayan development and hydropower projects to the flooding’s severity as recovery efforts continue amid mounting human toll.
