Nepal floods death toll hits 734
The devastating floods that swept through northern Nepal near the border with China have resulted in 734 deaths, with authorities acknowledging that the toll may rise. The disaster prompted the authorities to request international technical assistance. The floods were caused by a glacier collapse that triggered massive flooding, destroying villages and hindering rescue efforts, as search and rescue teams continue working to evacuate stranded people and restore essential services. The estimated cost for reconstruction is around 4 to 5 billion dollars. Countries such as India and China have sent expert teams and relief aid to support rescue efforts and contain the disaster.
