More than 215 people, including 35 children, have lost their lives, with dozens still missing after heavy rains triggered flash floods and landslides across Nepal.
The capital Kathmandu has been hardest hit, experiencing its heaviest rains in over 50 years. Hundreds of homes, schools and hospitals have been damaged, and parts of the city remain underwater.
The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in Nepal has dispatched emergency teams to the affected regions, providing vital humanitarian aid, as UN News’ Vibhu Mishra has been hearing from Florine Bos, Chief of Communications at UNICEF Nepal.
