A devastating flash flood has once again swept through a region in Nepal
Residents in Nepal's northern Gorkha district scrambled to escape rising water early Sunday morning, news.com.au reports. A flash flood swept away homes and bridges, bringing another emergency to a country where parts had been devastated by deadly flooding just weeks earlier.
The outlet's Short has drawn about 100,000 views in its first 16 hours. Its regular short-form uploads usually attract only a few thousand over a full first day, making this an unusually large early audience for the report.
The channel is also covering severe weather in the United States, with a separate upload about damage from Storm Rachel and Hurricane Isaias. Its Nepal report centers on the Budhi Gandaki river's sudden surge, with residents in Salleri, Paiyuka and Jagat describing a scramble to get away as the water hit.
