A heavy monsoon downpour has triggered floods and landslides in Nepal, resulting in a rising death toll of 151 people, with ongoing search efforts for the missing.
Torrential rains began late Thursday, with the worst recorded flooding in Kathmandu in decades, inundating neighborhoods and blocking key roads with landslides.
Rescue teams retrieved 14 bodies from two buses buried under rubble, while efforts continue to reach more vehicles trapped in mud and rocks near Kathmandu.
The government has shut schools and colleges across Nepal for three days as recovery efforts progress and weather conditions improve after severe monsoonal rains.
