Satellite images reveal devastation of Nepal-China border after catastrophic floods

Satellite images have captured the before-and-after impact of devastating floods on the Nepal-China border region. The disaster has destroyed communities and natural landscapes, with descriptions of 'virgin forest, sheer cliffs' before the flood. The event highlights the extreme environmental and human toll of the disaster.

Satellite images, released by multiple news outlets, show the stark transformation of the Nepal-China border region following the floods. The area, previously described as a 'virgin forest' with 'sheer cliffs,' is now submerged and largely uninhabitable. The flood has caused widespread destruction, impacting both human settlements and natural ecosystems. While all sources agree on the scale of the disaster, they do not provide specific casualty numbers or detailed accounts of rescue efforts.
