英国广播公司(BBC)8月26日报道,山洪袭击了尼泊尔首都加德满都以北的拉苏瓦地区。该地与中国西藏接壤,地处贸易通道沿线。当地官员认为,积雪融化导致河水暴涨,进而引发了此次洪灾。
一名常驻加德满都的中国商人表示,“我们的物流公司在当地有七辆集装箱卡车,全部由尼泊尔籍员工驾驶。我们已与他们全部失联——当地没有信号,无法联系到任何人。”
他补充道,事发前未收到任何预警,这里雨季偶尔会发生泥石流和山体滑坡,但这一次严重得多。
尼泊尔总理巴伦德拉·沙阿已召开紧急会议全面评估灾情。当局表示,拉苏瓦县两个哨所共有13名武警人员失踪,且已无法与数十名其他警员取得联系。
与此同时,位于中方一侧的吉隆口岸附近发生泥石流灾害,当地反映可能有人员失联。
