Flood in Nepal

A glacial lake outburst in Nepal caused flash floods and mudslides on the Thame River in Solukhumbu district on 16 August.

The flood severely damaged the village of Thame. Though no lives were lost, 20 houses, a school, and health clinic were destroyed by debris and boulders swept down the mountain by flood waters.

At least 135 people have been left homeless. Rescue efforts are ongoing, along with an investigation into the cause of the glacial lake outburst.
