Înainte de viitura catastrofală, Nepalul a solicitat Chinei avertizări timpurii, odată cu creșterea riscului producerii unor astfel de dezastre

Three months before a devastating flood in the Himalayas, Nepal and China officials met to discuss disaster risks. Despite the meeting, Nepal expressed concerns over insufficient data sharing from China regarding glacial risks. The recent disaster, triggered by a glacier collapse, resulted in significant casualties and economic loss for Nepal. Experts highlighted the need for improved cooperation and early warning systems to mitigate future risks. China's embassy stated that they have shared important information, but challenges remain in monitoring and forecasting in the region.
