A violent flash flood overflowed the Budhi Gandaki and Arras rivers, transforming the tranquility of the riverside areas into a scene of destruction. Houses and infrastructure were left underwater, leaving dozens of families in a critical situation while authorities struggle to assess the total damage.

Nature struck hard in the Gorkha district, in Nepal. The sudden overflow of the Budhi Gandaki river and its tributary, the Arras river, generated a flood that swept away everything in its path, leaving a trail of destruction in the coastal communities.

Red Alert: The situation remains critical in the riverside areas, where water destroyed homes and cut off vital infrastructure.

Emergency teams and local authorities are deployed on the ground. The immediate goal is twofold: provide humanitarian assistance to those affected and quantify the magnitude of the material losses.

So far, the most affected points are concentrated in:

  • Residential areas on the banks of the Budhi Gandaki river.
  • Settlements near the Arras river tributary.
  • Road infrastructure and bridges in the Gorkha district.

Despite rescue efforts, it has not yet been possible to determine the exact number of displaced people due to the difficulty of accessing some flooded areas.
