Floods Ravage Nepal Irish Aid Responds | Belfast News
Description
Flash floods in Nepal have unleashed catastrophic destruction, swallowing homes, roads, and hydropower stations—especially in Rasuwa and Nuwakot near the Tibetan border. Over 165 bodies recovered, hundreds still missing, including two Irish nationals sparking an urgent Red Cross appeal. Amid blocked access, Nepal’s Red Cross partners with Ireland to deliver lifesaving aid, drawing on a legacy forged during the 2015 earthquake. Immediate focus: rescuing the injured, locating the missing, and assessing damage. Long-term recovery looms as entire villages vanish; Ireland’s Foreign Affairs is also supporting affected citizens. The race to rebuild begins now, as rescue teams battle nature’s fury.
