Nepal Flood: Army Deployed To Assist And Evacuate Residents Triggered By Untimely Monsoon Rain
Members of security agencies, the Nepal Army, Armed Police Force, and the Nepal Police wade through the flood, ordering people to evacuate from a flooded area in Kathmandu, Nepal, on October 4, 2025, following incessant rain due to the continued influence of moisture-laden monsoon winds from the Bay of Bengal, which triggers heavy rainfall across the Himalayan nation. In Nepal, the monsoon is particularly influenced by the Bay of Bengal, making it a major driver of monsoon-related disasters. During the four months of the monsoon season, starting from June to September, Nepal typically receives around 80% of its annual average rainfall of 1,600 mm, sometimes reaching up to 1,800 mm. Nepal ranks second after Bangladesh in South Asia and 20th globally in multi-hazard disaster risk. According to the 2019 Asian Development Bank report, floods alone cause an average annual loss exceeding USD 140 million, accounting for 1.4% of Nepal's GDP. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto) -
