@themalaymail: Raging floodwaters swept away a bridge along Nepal’s Budhi Gandaki River, as severe flooding tore through parts of the Gorkha district. The floods also swept away homes and damaged infrastructure, forcing residents to flee to higher ground as several communities were cut off. Authorities have launched search and rescue operations, with five people reported missing. The cause of the flooding has yet to be confirmed, with authorities continuing to assess the extent of the damage.
