Drag the handle. Same valley, same framing, two days between them.

Two days apart. The thin river threading a green valley becomes a kilometre-wide channel of mud and rock, from the glacier down past Timure and Syabrubesi.

    A glacier breaks

    An ice-and-rock avalanche blocks the Lhende Khola near the Chinese border. The USGS logs the collapse as a magnitude-5.2 seismic event.source

  2. 09:00

    The dam fails

    The debris-dammed lake bursts. It had not rained in Rasuwa that morning — this was ice, not monsoon.source

  3. 09:15

    Timure is gone

    A wall of water eight to ten metres high hits the border settlements, then runs 60 km down the Trishuli. Children were walking to school.source

Seven districts, one river

The surge entered at Rasuwagadhi and followed the water to the lowlands. Pick a district to see what it lost.

What the water took

Provisional figures as of 28 August 2026. Every one of them has risen since Wednesday.

0

Confirmed deadsource

Still rising. At least 14 of them were children.

+0

Still missingsource

Nepal and Tibet combined. Many of these cases reflect downed phone networks rather than confirmed deaths.

0

Injuredsource

Dozens were airlifted to Kathmandu for advanced medical care.

+0

Children affectedsource

Across Rasuwa, Nuwakot and Dhading districts.

Two hundred and fifty households. One settlement. Gone.

They were families the 2015 earthquake had already displaced once, resettled on the banks of the Trishuli. The river took the whole community.source

~0

Riverside settlements hit hardestsource

Northern Rasuwa took the earliest and heaviest impact, led by Timure and Syabrubesi.

~0

Displaced from at least three villagessource

An early Nepal Red Cross count. The real displacement total is expected to be far higher.

0

People targeted by the Red Cross appealsource

IFRC emergency appeal MDRNP022, CHF 18 million requested.

There is still no official houses-destroyed countsource

As of the 27 August data cut-off, no government or humanitarian body had published a consolidated total for people displaced, sheltering or in need. The roads and bridges into the worst-hit valleys are gone, so assessment teams still cannot reach many settlements. What is on this page is what has been verified so far. It will rise.

Why aid is not getting through

The road to the border is gone. Relief goes in by helicopter, and in some valleys by mountain bike.

0

Bridges swept awaysource

Including several concrete spans on the highway to the Chinese border.

0 km

Betrawati to Rasuwagadhi road destroyedsource

Nepal's principal overland trade and pilgrimage route to Tibet, cut at multiple points. A further 16 km stretch near the border was lost with it.

0

Hydropower projects damagedsource

About 748 MW of combined capacity: nine operating plants (354 MW) and five under construction (394 MW), plus a 220 kV substation.

0

Bank branches swept awaysource

26 bank staff are unaccounted for. The Timure customs office lost contact with 15 employees.

0

Health facilities severely damagedsource

Cutting off medical care exactly when survivors need it most.

0

Police posts destroyedsource

Timure Area Police Office, Rasuwagadhi Police Post and Syabrubesi Police Post.

Where the numbers came from

Current as of 28 August 2026 and still provisional. Where sources disagree, the most recent published figure is used.

District boundaries come from the geoJSON-Nepal dataset of Survey Department polygons, simplified for the web. The river corridor is drawn through the settlements named in the reporting and is indicative, not surveyed. Coin data comes from DexScreener and a Solana RPC endpoint.
