Nepal has been hit by another major wave of heavy rain, flash floods and landslides, with at least 24 people killed and 14 others reported missing across several districts. Dramatic videos emerging from the affected areas show a giant mountainside collapsing within seconds, sending huge amounts of rock and debris downhill. One major landslide near Lete in Mustang briefly obstructed the Kali Gandaki River. The latest disaster has damaged homes, roads and bridges, while more than a dozen highways have been blocked, disrupting transportation and essential services.

A deadly avalanche has struck the base camp area of Himlung Himal in Nepal’s Manang district, leaving at least four people dead and 12 Nepalese workers and guides missing, according to officials. A 14-member rescue team has reached the 7,126-metre Himlung Himal base camp by helicopter and begun searching for those still unaccounted for. Officials say 27 people were believed to be at the base camp when the avalanche struck, while 11 people have since made contact. The team had been preparing for the autumn climbing season, fixing ropes and setting up tents when the avalanche hit.
