KATHMANDU, 12th July, 2024 (WAM) -- Landslides in Nepal swept two buses with at least 65 passengers on board into a river on Friday, while landslides elsewhere in the mountainous country killed at least ten people, Reuters reported.
Dozens have died in the Himalayan nation since the middle of June as torrential monsoon rains triggered landslides and flooding.
"There were 41 people in the bus travelling from Kathmandu to Gaur, and 24 people in the bus travelling from Birgunj to Kathmandu. Both the buses and the passengers are missing in Trishuli River," police spokesman Dan Bahadur Karki said.
