Flash floods sweep away homes and bridges in Nepal
Flash flooding along Nepal's Budhi Gandaki River swept away homes, buildings and bridges and forced residents toward higher ground, the BBC and Al Jazeera reported. The country is still recovering from catastrophic floods less than two months earlier that left thousands dead or missing. The supplied reports did not give new casualty figures.
Why it matters
Repeated floods are compounding displacement and infrastructure damage before communities have recovered from the previous disaster.
