Summary
More than two weeks after a glacier collapse near the China-Nepal border triggered devastating flash floods in Nepal's Nuwakot district, the emergency response has shifted to recovery and relief efforts. The official death toll stands at 1,429, with 5,649 persons missing. Caritas Nepal, with support from CRS and the US government, is providing shelter, protection, and aid to displaced families and children, including operating holding centers, Child-Friendly Spaces, and distributing cash assistance. The US State Department has provided over $5 million in humanitarian assistance, including food, logistics, and protection services. The scale of the damage is extensive, with early estimates suggesting rebuilding costs could reach nearly $5 billion.
