Nepal holds today the funerals of victims of the devastating flood that hit the border with China, without waiting for the identification of bodies or the end of rescue operations. The decision to bury bodies before complete identification was made due to the magnitude of the disaster, which left a large number of victims.
The floods occurred in the border region between Nepal and China, causing large-scale destruction. The situation is considered extremely serious by Nepalese authorities, who justify the urgency of burials due to the need to deal with the high number of fatalities.
Rescue operations are still ongoing, but authorities decided not to make funerals contingent on the completion of these efforts. This reflects the scale of the disaster and the difficulties faced by local emergency services.
