Nepal Flash Flood Likely Triggered by Glacial Avalanche, Experts Say

Climate scientists at the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development in Kathmandu believe a glacial avalanche triggered a deadly flash flood in Nepal. The institution, which specializes in mountain ecosystem research, linked the disaster to glacial activity in the region. The incident draws parallels to a similar tragedy that struck Nepal the previous year. Experts suggest the recurring pattern points to the growing threat posed by melting glaciers and unstable glacial lakes in the Himalayan region.
