The death toll in Nepal from recent devastating floods and landslides has risen to 469, with nearly 1,498 people still missing. Rescue efforts are ongoing, hampered by difficult terrain and continued rainfall. Authorities are warning of the potential for a second, larger flood as water levels remain dangerously high in several rivers. The disaster has displaced thousands, leaving many without shelter, food, or clean water, and is affecting communities across the country. International aid is beginning to arrive, but challenges remain in reaching remote affected areas. The Nepalese government has declared a national crisis and is appealing for further international assistance to support the search and rescue operations and provide relief to those impacted.
