Nepal death toll climbs to 217 after heavy floods and landslips as rescue efforts intensify
The death toll from rain-induced floods and landslips across Nepal crossed 215-mark on Tuesday while the number of those gone missing stands at 28, officials said. The disaster, which began on September 26, 2024, continued to cause widespread destruction in multiple provinces until Sunday (September 29, 2024), leaving thousands displaced. Large swathes of eastern and central Nepal have been inundated since Friday.
Most deaths took place in Kathmandu, where large parts of the city were submerged. A deadly landslide near a blocked highway 16 kilometres from Kathmandu buried several vehicles, killing three dozen people who were sleeping in the area. All roads out of Kathmandu were blocked due to landslides, but workers managed to clear the Prithvi Highway temporarily.
According to reports, a low-pressure system over the Bay of Bengal, combined with an unusual positioning of the monsoon trough, triggered heavy rainfall across Nepal starting on Friday. The downpours were especially intense in eastern and central regions, causing the Bagmati River, Kathmandu's main waterway, to overflow.
The floods have caused significant damage to infrastructure, with at least 322 homes and 16 bridges destroyed across Nepal. Many locals reported that they had not seen such devastating floods in the Kathmandu Valley in 40 to 45 years. However, flooding was not the only consequence of the intense rainfall.
