Some horrendous images are coming through from Nepal, where flash flooding and mudslides are destroying large swathes of land and property. Many hundreds, likely thousands, will have died in these incidents. The videos show how difficult, indeed hopeless, it would have been for people to try to escape.
The floods are thought to have been triggered by an ice-rock avalanche from a glacier that caused a downstream surge.
One video shows the border post between Nepal and China—a large, solid construction—being completely overwhelmed by the scale and force of the flood surge.

The scenes looked absolutely terrifying. Absolutely nothing you could do if you were in the path of that.
800 missing now being reported, 177 deceased already found.
Looks like a beautiful part of the world.

One of the videos shows the border crossing, and surrounding buildings. The main building must be 8 or 10 stories tall, and the flood surge pours over it as if it was nothing more than than a bump in the path of the water.
I wouldn`t be surprised if the death toll rose considerably when rescuers are able to explore up the gorge, and what they may find where villages once stood is terrifying.

BBC News now advising there could be more flooding on its way with the glacial melting “experts say there are concerns about possible "second and third waves", potentially caused by debris in rivers.”
It’s very sad viewing.

I saw things that I really wished I hadn`t.
Dreadful stuff, human tragedy on a massive scale.

The video from the construction workers of a bridge/dam? In the valley is genuinely one of the most frightening things Ive ever watched. How easy the water and ice just wipes everything out is mind boggling. Mother nature really id a scary force that cant be stopped.

Reports saying sabotage considered, video doing the rounds of an explosion at the dam, can`t confirm authenticity though.

The dam wasn`t even finished and was overwhelmed by the surge from further up. People need to stop making nonsense up when so many have died and been displaced.

It has almost instantly been dismissed as fake/AI by most credible sources. There`s various videos kicking around, including an F15 fighter jet, the Death Star, and Trump himself pushing the detonator. Don`t fall for it.

No need to apologise, just do your own research in future instead of letting yourself be fooled by believing other folks narrative 👍
