Devastating Floods in Nepal: A Glimpse into a Bigger Picture The recent floods in Nepal have left an estimated 600 people dead, thousands missing, and millions displaced.
The destruction is staggering, with reports indicating that the country's hydropower stations, accounting for over 12% of its national generating capacity, have been severely damaged.
Finance Minister Swarnim Wagle revealed to Reuters that rebuilding efforts may cost Nepal between $4 billion and $5 billion, a sum equivalent to nearly 10% of the country's economy.
