Nepal Flash Flood: 157 Dead, Hundreds Missing After Valley Engulfed

Dramatic footage has captured the moment a flash flood tore through Nepal’s Rasuwa district, killing at least 157 people and leaving hundreds more missing. The disaster struck without warning, engulfing the valley in a sudden surge of water and debris. The video, widely shared on social media, shows the powerful current sweeping through the area, destroying homes and infrastructure in its path. Rescue teams are currently combing through the mud and wreckage, but their efforts are being hampered by damaged roads and unstable terrain. Local officials have confirmed that the death toll is expected to rise as search operations continue. The Rasuwa district, located north of the capital Kathmandu, is a popular trekking route. It is unclear how many foreign nationals are among the missing. Authorities have yet to determine the exact cause of the flood, though heavy rainfall in the region is believed to be a primary factor.
