In Nepal, due to flooding on the Budhi Gandaki River, nine Russian tourists were cut off from the outside world. This was reported to RBC in the Russian Embassy in Kathmandu.
A group of tourists set off for trekking around Mount Manaslu on October 11, but flooding destroyed roads and trails, leaving them in Jagat village of Gorkha County.
Minister-Counselor of the Russian Embassy in Nepal Rinchen Rakshaev said that there is no direct threat to the life and health of tourists now, but the conditions for overnight stay remain poor. For security reasons, the Russians rose higher.
