33 killed in Nepal floods, landslides_我的网站

一 |     Kathmandu, Oct 12 (UNI) At least 33 people have died in floods and landslides across western Nepal in the past week, local media reports say.
The worst of the monsoon rains hit Karnali province in the north-west, where thousands of residents were evacuated, officials said.
Nepal is nearing the end of its monsoon season, which typically begins in June and ends in October.
At least 110 people have died this year in rain-related disasters, according to the National Emergency Operation Centre.
Hundreds of homes have been damaged in the avalanches and flooding. At least 22 people are still missing across the province and scores more have been injured, the BBC reported.
Rescuers have described difficulties in getting to the mountainous region amid continued rain.
'We have mobilised police officers on the ground. We have arranged a helicopter for air rescue from Surkhet," said one police spokesman, quoted by the Annapurna Post.
"However, unfortunately, due to the weather not improving, progress is not being made as expected."
Most reports of missing people came from the low-lying Kalikot district. Thousands were evacuated from their homes there in the past week amid warnings of intense rain.
In some areas of the province, the Karnali river had risen to over 39ft , Nepal's emergency authorities said.
Several suspension bridges over the river had also been washed away, local media reported.
Government officials have dispatched aid to the region on helicopters.
The UN's humanitarian agencies said they were distributing food and medicine to the worst affected communities in western Nepal.

二 |     NAIROBI, Kenya -- Tanzania's government signed a controversial port management deal with Dubai-based DP World that had fueled protests in the African country in the past months and led to arrests of dozens of critics.The deal was signed on Sunday in the presence of Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan, who has recently been accused of cracking down on critics such as her predecessor, the late John Magufuli.Tanzania Ports Authority Director General Plasduce Mbossa said that DP World, based in the United Arab Emirates, will only operate four berths and not the entire port. Its performance would be reviewed every five years for a total contractual period of 30 years.The opposition and civil society have protested the government decision to have a foreign logistics company manage Tanzania’s ports. The government has said the move would increase port efficiency and grow the country’s economy.The ports agreement was approved by Tanzania’s parliament on June 10, triggering protests in which more than 22 people have been arrested so far, according to Human Rights Watch.The international rights group in August urged Tanzania to respect freedom of expression and the right to protest. Tanzania has made some reforms since the death in 2021 of autocratic President Magufuli, who cracked down on critics and introduced draconian laws.Hassan, who is serving out Magufuli’s term, has been accused of continuing his anti-democratic policies. However, she was lauded in 2022 for lifting a prohibition on four newspapers that had been banned by the former leader.。
