The devastating floods in Nepal have produced an increasingly dramatic toll, with the number of dead rising to 1,295 and 4,898 people still missing, according to the latest report from Nepalese authorities released this Friday. The natural disaster continues to affect large areas of the country, leaving entire communities isolated and without access to basic services.
Faced with the destruction of traditional infrastructure, survivors turned to creative solutions to move around. A makeshift cable car was built in Nepal to allow people to move around in an area affected by flooding, demonstrating the adaptability of local communities in the face of the emergency.
The day was also marked by the dramatic rescue of two workers who remained trapped inside a tunnel for ten days. The rescue teams managed to extract the two survivors, offering a moment of hope amid the tragedy afflicting the Asian country.
