2026-10-07Continuous heavy rainfall in Nepal has disrupted humanitarian response activities following flash floods in August.
Heavy rainfall between September 24 and 28 impeded ongoing relief efforts. The Logistics and Telecommunications Cluster has been active for one month, supporting 77 partners and facilitating the transport of over 336 metric tons of cargo. Nine coordination meetings have been held to streamline the response.
The ongoing rainfall poses a significant challenge to humanitarian operations, as affected families continue to relocate, complicating aid delivery. Damage to essential infrastructure further strains response capacity.
Flash floods in August affected over 84,000 people, including more than 32,000 children and 1,800 persons with disabilities. The floods destroyed or damaged 64 water schemes, 10,000 toilets, 7 health facilities, and 23 schools, impacting access to critical services.
The current reports do not detail the specific needs of the internally displaced persons or refugees.
