00:11We're in Dading, where we're seeing some of the roads are opening up, including parts of the main St. Paul
00:16Highway that was shut down.
00:17The highway serves as a major way for things to get in and out of Kathmandu, and there's fears there
00:21may be shortages ahead of the autumn festival season.
00:24Behind us, you're seeing along the river. We've been getting warnings all morning that the river levels might be rising
00:29and that water's moving very, very fast,
00:31so locals have been advised to move way to higher zones, a way to safety.
00:36We got the SMS alert from the Flood Control Department, and local police and army personnel inform us that there
00:49is a flood coming,
00:50the second phase of the flood. There is some deposit that is dropped, and the flood is coming to go
00:58to the same place.
00:59That's why we came to some height from the ground level.
01:04You can see also the extent of the destruction. There's entire homes, there's tractors, farming equipment vehicles completely submerged to
01:12the sediment by the riverside.
01:14I think the extent of the damage is still being surveyed because areas are very hard to access.
