Nepal marks national mourning after over 1,300 die in floods
Nepal is holding a national day of mourning to honor the more than 1,300 lives lost to flash floods. Across the country and at diplomatic missions overseas, the national flag is being flown at half-mast. This day coincides with the 13th day of mourning in the Hindu faith, a time dedicated to offering prayers for those who have passed away. The government has suspended all official events while search and rescue efforts remain active in the regions impacted by the flooding.
