At least 1,225 people died due to flooding that hit Nepal and China. The floods occurred on August 26 and caused widespread destruction across both countries.
The floods of August 26 caused the Trishuli River to rise an impressive 18 meters, an unprecedented level that devastated the riverside areas. The force of the water destroyed 72 km of settlements along the river's course.
More than 21,000 rescue workers remain in the field to carry out rescue operations and assistance to victims. The teams work continuously to find survivors among the rubble and provide humanitarian aid to the affected populations.
