A 5.0 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal on September 9, further complicating rescue efforts in regions already devastated by recent flash floods.
The tremors were felt across three districts, with the epicenter located in the Mustang region, adding to the humanitarian crisis that has claimed over 1,300 lives.
Emergency teams are currently navigating unstable terrain to reach workers trapped in hydropower tunnels, with rescue operations hampered by the seismic activity.
