through Himalayan villages overnight.0:04The surge severed the main road to Kathmandu, knocked out more than a tenth of0:08Nepal's power, and left hundreds of tourists and villagers missing across Tibet and0:12Nepal.0:13With the corridor reachable only by air, can pledged aid get in before a second0:17surge breaks through?0:18It started August 26 in the upper Lendicola, a tributary of the Bote Koshi near the0:23Nepal-China border.0:25The jolt was first read as a magnitude 4.4 earthquake, then reclassified as a0:29magnitude 5.2 landslide, a glacial collapse and debris flow.0:33Satellite analysis tracked a massive slab of ice shearing off at about 17,000 feet0:385,200 meters as an ice rock avalanche that choked the river and built a makeshift0:42dam.0:43When that dam gave way, it unleashed the flow into the Botekoshi and Trishuli.0:47This was not a glacial lake outburst from a pre-existing lake.0:50The avalanche itself carried river water and sediment into the surge.0:54That mechanism is why outside help is now moving.0:57On August 26, the United States announced $500,000 for Nepal.1:01It is channeled through the Global Award with Catholic Relief Services, not through1:04ActionAid Nepal, for emergency shelter, relief items, and water, sanitation, and1:09hygiene in Rasua District, with a disaster advisor deploying.1:12ActionAid Nepal is working separately in Rasua, Nuakot, and Dading with food,1:16shelter, and healthcare, but there is no evidence it received or manages the1:20American grant.1:21The claim that the money flows via ActionAid remains unconfirmed.1:24The human toll is still developing, and the numbers conflict as recovery advances.1:29France 24 reported around 160 dead and more than 550 missing along the Trishuli1:34corridor, hundreds of them tourists.1:36Sky News on the same day reported at least 162 dead in Nepal, plus additional deaths1:41in Tibet, and hundreds missing on each side.1:44Other aggregated counts cite at least 359 confirmed dead and more than 1,3001:49missing, 826 missing in Nepal, including 644 tourists, and 3 dead and1:54558 missing in Tibet's Gurong County.1:57The gaps reflect separate national tallies and uncertainty about overlap.2:01And the toll is expected to rise as access improves.2:09Among the missing are foreign nationals.2:1165 Americans, 53 Ukrainians, 35 Australians, and 33 UK nationals are listed in the2:16aggregated reports, plus groups including Alpine Eco Trek and Kailash Journeys2:20pilgrims.2:21Hundreds of Indians remain uncontactable or stranded, in some cases on the Chinese2:25side of the border, while about 21 Tamil Nadu pilgrims were rescued by about 1 p.m.2:29August 27th and were headed to Kathmandu.2:31Experts say it is too early to definitively link this collapse and flood to global2:36warming.2:36Access is the bottleneck that decides whether any of that aid matters about 402:40kilometers of road are destroyed or impassable in Rasua, including the Betrawadi to2:45Siafrubazi and Razuagadi corridor through Meilung, with stretches of the2:49Galchi-Trishali Road and the Prithvi Highway buried or closed.2:52The main road to Kathmandu and the border trade corridor are severed.2:56Between 19 and 41 motorable and strategic bridges are gone.2:59Reports put thirty two to forty one across Rasuwa, Nuwakot and Dating, including the3:04Friendship, Or Miteri, Bridge at Rasuwagadi, plus Timur, Siafrubazi, Betrawadi,3:10Old and New, and Trishuli Bazaar.3:12Power loss is 354 to 431 megawatts offline, more than 10 to 12 percent of national3:17capacity, hitting Rasuwagadi 111 megawatts, Sanjen Kola, seventy eight megawatts,3:23Upper Trishuli, Chilimay, and the Trishuli three B hub substation.3:26Against that terrain, three aid tracks have started at different speeds.3:30India's material has actually landed, about 47.5 tons in two flights, a C one3:35hundred thirty J with about ten tons the night of August twenty six carrying3:38temporary shelters, blankets, hygiene kits, solar lamps and medicines, and a C 173:43with 37.5 tons on August 27th with eight tons of medicines and one tonne of food.3:48Nepali Army helicopters are dropping those supplies to cut off communities and3:52Bailey bridges are being mobilized, with Indian teams coordinating search.3:57China's mobilization is concentrated on the Tibet side around Girong and Girong4:01port.4:02nearly 800 emergency workers, 150 vehicles, sniffer dogs, and speed boats, plus4:08about 145 officers and soldiers from the Gigais People's Armed Police, with Premier4:13Lee Kiang visiting the site.4:14Coordination with Nepal is offered, but reach beyond the port area into Nepali4:19villages is not yet detailed.4:21Nepali Army and police with thousands of personnel plus private helicopters have4:25airlifted 114 to more than 305 people.4:28Many villages are still helicopter only.4:31The confirmed picture comes from two reports published August 27th together with the4:35geological survey and State Department confirmations.4:38Delivery is still at the earliest stage.4:40Indian tents, food and medicines are in Kathmandu and being air dropped.4:45American funds for shelter and clean water are announced but not yet shown as4:49delivered in villages.4:50Chinese assets are deployed in Tibet with coordination ongoing, and all face the4:54same destroyed roads and bridges, high water, debris, landslide risk, plus a4:59secondary flood threat from water still dammed upstream that could produce another5:02surge.อ่านบทความลำดับเวลาของเรื่องHeyDexคลิปสั้น ↗
