A severe flood and landslide that struck early this morning have caused extensive damage at the Rasuwagadhi border crossing between Nepal and China. According to reports, no information about human casualties has been received to date.
The powerful flood in the Lende River swept away the Miteri Bridge, affecting the main road that connects Nepal and China. Around 3:15 AM, floodwaters from the Chinese side completely destroyed a bridge located in front of China’s Immigration Office.
The floods also damaged the Rasuwagadhi Hydropower Project, the under-construction customs yard, and numerous trucks parked along the riverbank. Additionally, several electric vehicles (EVs) kept for customs clearance are believed to have been washed away by the floodwaters.
