Now29 August 2026 at 15:02

In Nepal, the situation after the disaster is increasingly dramatic, with reports that it is increasingly difficult to find survivors alive among the rubble.

Alexandre Rodrigues warned, in statements to NOW, about the serious public health risks threatening the surviving population. Among the main dangers identified are drinking water contamination and the accumulation of corpses.

These factors represent a significant threat to the health of affected communities, potentially triggering epidemics and serious diseases among the population.

The humanitarian situation in the country is deteriorating rapidly, with authorities and relief organizations facing growing challenges in responding to the basic needs of the population.
