Relief operations in Nepal are facing significant challenges as heavy rainfall continues to hinder efforts to reach thousands of people missing following flash floods that occurred along the border with Tibet. The downpours have turned roads into muddy terrain, trapping vital relief vehicles and slowing down the delivery of aid.

The situation is compounded by the ongoing precipitation, which makes accessing affected areas difficult and dangerous. The full extent of the damage and the number of missing individuals are still being assessed amid the challenging weather conditions.
