Debris flow disaster occurs in Nepal-China border area, leaving over 1,100 dead and 4,400 missing

It has been a week since the debris flow disaster occurred in the Nepal-China border area, and more than 1,100 people have died in both countries, with more than 4,400 missing. Rescue and search efforts have been difficult due to the rugged terrain and widespread damage in the disaster area. It was announced that 1,114 people were killed and 3,916 people missing on the Nepali side, and 21 people were killed and 541 people missing on the Chinese side. There is still no news of the five Japanese tourists. The United Nations reported that 65,000 people were in need of water and sanitation supplies, and Nepal's Prime Minister Shah said the disaster was caused by climate change and appealed for international cooperation. On the Chinese side, search efforts are expected to make progress now that the road to the border checkpoint has been opened and heavy equipment can be deployed.

The Imperial Household Agency plans to hold the retired emperor's funeral at the palace on a smaller scale than during the time of Emperor Showa.

In response to the wishes of the retired Emperor, the Imperial Household Agency is considering holding a ``Sojoden no Gi,'' which is equivalent to a general funeral ceremony, at the Imperial Palace, and significantly reducing the scale of the ceremony compared to Emperor Showa's funeral, according to interviews with people involved. The Emperor has long wanted to minimize the impact on people's lives, and is considering holding the ceremony in a place where he can safely attend without being affected by weather conditions, such as the Palace's Pine Room. Approximately 10,000 people attended Emperor Showa's funeral at Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, but the number of attendees is expected to decrease significantly as the venue is changed to the palace.
