Nepal faces what is described as the biggest catastrophic event of 2026. The situation in the country was marked by severe humanitarian and operational challenges resulting from the catastrophe.

André Morais, the figure mentioned in the article, warned of the enormous difficulties in coordinating international teams operating in the field. This coordination proved particularly complex given the scale of the damage and the need for urgent responses.

The specialist also mentioned the increased risk of new infrastructure collapses, which worsens the humanitarian situation and hinders rescue and reconstruction operations in the country.
