What's happening

A dry landslide in Chumnubri village, Gorkha district, blocked the Budhi Gandaki River on October 11, 2026, causing a massive downstream flood that swept away about a dozen houses, two suspension bridges, and damaged a hydroelectric project. Authorities reported no casualties but urged villagers along the river banks in five districts to evacuate to safer locations.

Corroboration under way

One piece is missing to confirm

Several newsrooms describe the same fact, which is enough to publish it — not to confirm it. We are looking for an official source, another media family, or a witness on the ground.

Your description stays private — only the type and the area can appear, and only if other witnesses confirm.

What's missing to corroborate

  • An official source (local authority, prefecture, ministry)
  • A pick-up in another media family — TV, radio or social
  • A witness on the ground to pin the exact area
