Nepal catastrophe: "There are many missing people who will never appear, because they are buried underground"

Nepal faces a catastrophe that has left a high number of missing people. According to the news headline, there are many missing people who will probably never be found, as they are submerged or buried under the rubble.

Ricardo Ribeiro is the main source of information cited in the article, having made statements about the situation in the country. The specialist harshly criticized Nepal's response to the tragedy.

Ricardo Ribeiro pointed to the lack of investment by Nepal in prevention measures, monitoring, and early warning systems. This lack of preparation is believed to have contributed to the severity of the catastrophe's effects.

The article suggests that the absence of these preventive measures significantly aggravated the number of victims and the difficulty in rescue and search operations for survivors.
