Current Situation in Nepal

On the morning of August 26, 2026, a glacial and landslide in the Himalayas triggered a massive flash flood. Water, mud, and debris devastated numerous settlements, particularly in the Nepalese districts of Rasuwa and Nuwakot. At least 1,451 people lost their lives, and more than 6,650 are listed as missing. Over 7,500 families are directly affected by damaged or destroyed homes.

Many survivors have lost their homes and their means of livelihood. Destroyed roads and bridges are hindering access to medical care and schools. In addition to urgently needed relief supplies, people need safe shelter, clean water, and reliable medical care. Restoring school operations is also important so that children can continue their education. With winter approaching, the affected families must also be protected from the cold and inclement weather.
