India sends 11-member rescue team, 5.5 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Nepal

India has dispatched an 11-member rescue team and 5.5 tonnes of humanitarian aid to Nepal in response to catastrophic flash floods caused by a glacial collapse in Tibet on August 26. This marks the fifth such delivery from India, which has provided over 68 tonnes of emergency relief materials, including medical supplies, food, shelter items, and equipment. The floods have resulted in at least 1,003 deaths, with hundreds more still missing, particularly in areas affected by hydropower projects. Nepal's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority reported that recovery efforts are ongoing, with international assistance from India and China helping in search and rescue operations. A forensic team from India is also working alongside Nepalese experts to identify victims.
