Seven die in floods, landslide in Nepal

Officials said on Monday at least seven people were killed and several people were injured due to the continued rain floods and landslides in Nepal over the weekend.

Landslides occur in several mountainous areas, and most of the Terai area is flooded. According to reports from the southern region, hundreds of houses and large farmlands have been flooded

According to the police chief's team Tek Bahadur Tamang, at least four people died in the Banke area. At least three people died due to landslides in the Lolpa area

The tributaries of the three major rivers from the Himalayas, the rivers in India have crossed the signs of danger, and the Meteorological Authority recommended that people living near the river move to safer places.

According to reports from several mountainous areas, highways have been blocked by landslides and passengers have problems. Several expressways connecting Kathmandu and other countries are blocked by landslides

After the storm, many colonies in the Terai area were flooded, the weather station warned that rain would last for two days.

During the monsoon season, many areas of Nepal are vulnerable to floods and landslides. According to the Interior Ministry, at least 1,672 people have experienced floods and landslides in Nepal over the past seven years.

During the majority of the summer, strong monsoon rain and hurricane attacked the Indian subcontinent, causing extensive damage in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Myanmar. As a result of floods and landslides, it is believed that about 1,000 people died and 41 million people were affected. These numbers increase as the rain moves north to Pakistan now. There are reports that millions of people have been losing their homes and the disease of the water system has increased significantly. The rainy season is equally generous in Africa. In Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Niger and the Democratic Republic of Congo, hundreds of deaths have been caused by heavy rain and landslides and hundreds of thousands of people are evacuated. This means that the two-year drought destroys eastern and southern Africa, and 38 million people are at risk of food insecurity.

Migration due to disasters is a global phenomenon. At present, catastrophic flooding and landslides occurred in Nepal, India and Bangladesh due to torrential rains, nearly 1,200 people died and millions of people have evacuated. Three weeks ago, a country in West Africa, Sierra Leone, was hit by floods and landslides, nearly 500 people died, more than 600 people were missing, about 4,000 people lost their homes. Lone Star State became the home of approximately 100,000 evacuees who fled from New Orleans during 2005 during Hurricane Katrina. It is unclear how many people were affected again in Harvey and evacuated again. On a global scale, it is not uncommon for people to evacuate as a result of extreme weather phenomena and moderate environmental degradation such as desertification and sea level rise.
