AGP Executive Report
Last update: 6 hours agoDisaster Update: Nepal’s flash floods and landslides entered day 11-12 of search and rescue, with the death toll standing at 1,344 and nearly 5,000 still missing; officials say identification is slow because many bodies are recovered with missing parts and heavy mud damage, while Chitwan has the most recoveries. Miracle Rescues: Two more survivors were pulled out alive— a Chinese national from the Upper Trishuli-1 hydropower tunnel and a 64-year-old Nepali woman, Chandika Shrestha, from a debris-buried home in Nuwakot—renewing hope as teams keep working despite bad weather and damaged access. Border Fallout (China/Tibet): On the China side, Tibet authorities report 43 deaths and 519 missing, with rescue crews reinforcing the Gyirong Port highway route after the mudslide. Press Rules: Nepal has made press accreditation mandatory for foreign journalists covering flood zones along the Bhotekoshi and Trishuli rivers, with a 15-day card and document requirements. Aid & Diplomacy: Pakistan sent 100 tonnes of humanitarian aid; South Korea pledged support for Nepal’s post-flood reconstruction after talks with Nepal’s foreign minister, while UN launched a $49.6m appeal. Human Cost: Mothers in shelters say baby food, privacy, and timely care are scarce, and expectant women face urgent health risks amid overcrowding.
