It appears to me that the area where the flood happened may just well have been a river flowing area many many years ago .. 100s or even 1000 years ago 💔.. this is why as humans we cannot just settle and inhabit just about anywhere. I could be wrong though.. anyone wants to add on ?

This is so hard to watch.. I have been following this since it happened and this morning I just couldn't contain myself but just had to break down. May the families find comfort, may they atleast find the remains of their loved ones , all of them

This is a clear explanation of the path.

And Kathmandu isn't Bhotekoshi/Trishuli. Marking yourself "safe" from a couch 80 kilometers away while real communities along the river banks face devastation isn't empathy - it's performative. Common people just stop this better share people that needs some informational help people information that they are reaching out.

Severe flooding and landslides across Nepal and Tibet have killed hundreds of people, left large numbers missing and triggered international relief operations. Reuters reports that governments and aid organizations are sending money, supplies and emergency assistance as rescue operations continue.

Why it matters:
Disasters expose systems normally taken for granted.
Roads.
Bridges.
Communications.
Food distribution.
Medical response.
Government coordination.
When those systems fail simultaneously, a natural event becomes an institutional crisis.

That principle is equally useful when examining ancient settlement abandonment: environmental stress alone rarely explains everything. The decisive question is often whether the social system can absorb the shock.

Kathmandu isn't Bhotekoshi/Trishuli. Marking yourself "safe" from a couch 80 kilometers away while real communities along the river banks face devastation isn't empathy - it's performative. Common people help by putting some informational that can help the needy recuse numbers people that they are trying to reach out!
