Nepal is increasingly relying on drones for a broader range of disaster response activities, moving beyond their initial use by international teams following the 2015 earthquake. These unmanned aerial vehicles are now utilized for critical tasks like delivering essential supplies to remote, affected areas. Drones are also proving invaluable in search and rescue operations, helping to locate survivors in challenging terrains. Notably, Nepal is now using drones to respectfully airlift bodies from locations deemed too dangerous for human rescuers. This expansion of drone use demonstrates a growing national capability in disaster management. The country’s expertise has evolved, allowing for more efficient and effective responses to emergencies. This represents a significant step in Nepal's self-reliance in handling disaster situations.
