This is really sad story Heavy monsoon rains have triggered floods and landslides in India’s Himalayan region, killing at least 41 people and trapping many others. Days of downpours have washed away vehicles, demolished buildings and destroyed bridges in the northern Himalayan states of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, while killing at least 33 and eight in each state, respectively. A cloudburst in the Solan district of Himachal Pradesh on Sunday night killed nine people, and 12 people died in two landslides in Shimla, the state’s capital, authorities told the Press Trust of India (PTI) news agency. At least a dozen others were killed as heavy rains battered the state, sparking flash floods and more landslides. www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/8/14/dozens-dead-as-floods-landslides-hit-indias-himalayan-region
