Princ William i princeza Kate prekinuli su odmor da izraze saučešće žrtvama poplava koje su 26. avgusta pogodile Nepal i delove Kine. Prema zvaničnim podacima, registrovano je 579 poginulih, 1.924 nestala, a skoro 93.000 ljudi je pogođeno. Preliminarne procene ukazuju na moguću lavinu leda ili kolaps glečera uzvodno u Tibetu; klimatske promene mogu doprineti učestalosti ovakvih događaja. Spasilačke ekipe nastavljaju potragu, a UK i humanitarne organizacije nude podršku.
Princ William i princeza Kate zatečeni razmerom poplava u Nepalu, UK nudi pomoć
Prince George of Wales, Britain's Prince William, Prince of Wales, Britain's Prince Louis of Wales, Britain's Catherine, Princess of Wales, and Britain's Princess Charlotte of Wales, stand on the balcony of Buckingham Palace after attending the King's Birthday Parade "Trooping the Colour" in London on June 15, 2024.
Princ William i princeza Kate prekinuli su svoj letnji odmor kako bi iskazali saučešće žrtvama katastrofalnih poplava koje su 26. avgusta pogodile Nepal i delove Kine. Njihova izjava objavljena 28. avgusta na platformi X ističe zabrinutost zbog opsega razaranja i zahvalnost spasiocima koji rade u veoma opasnim uslovima.
Zvanični podaci navode da je, prema Nacionalnoj agenciji za smanjenje rizika od katastrofa u Nepalu (National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority of Nepal), do sada potvrđeno 579 poginulih, dok je 1.924 osoba prijavljeno kao nestalo. Crveni krst procenjuje da je skoro 93.000 ljudi pogođeno, a očekuje se da će broj žrtava rasti kako spasilačke ekipe nastavljaju potragu.
Opis katastrofe
Poplave su nastupile nakon naglog naleta vode u reku Bhote Koshi iz Tibeta, koji je 26. avgusta protutnjao kroz severni distrikt Rasuwa u Nepalu. Bujica je razorila zajednice duž koridora reka Bhote Koshi i Trishuli, uništivši kuće, objekte i ključnu infrastrukturu.
Mogući uzrok i naučne sumnje
Zvaničnici još uvek istražuju tačan uzrok izlivanja; preliminarne procene i naučnici ukazuju na mogućnost lavine leda ili kolapsa glečera koji je blokirao reku uzvodno u Tibetu, što je dovelo do iznenadne bujice. Stručnjaci takođe upozoravaju da klimatske promene povećavaju rizik od naglih, snažnih izlivanja u planinskim i glečerskim oblastima.
Reakcije i podrška
"Razmere razaranja duž granice Nepala i Kine su šokantne. Misli su nam sa svima koji su zahvaćeni ovom strašnom katastrofom," napisali su vojvoda i vojvotkinja od Velsa.
Kralj Charles III i kraljica Camilla takođe su uputili saučešće 27. avgusta, iskazujući žaljenje i naglašavajući da Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo stoji spremno da pruži podršku onima kojima je potrebna pomoć. Kraljeva izjava je posebno zahvalila i onima iz policije i oružanih snaga koji su poginuli tokom spasilačkih napora.
Trenutni napori i poziv na međunarodnu pomoć
Spasilačke ekipe, volonteri i lokalne vlasti nastavljaju potragu za preživelima uprkos opasnim uslovima. Humanitarne organizacije i vlasti apeluju na međunarodnu pomoć za podršku spasilačkim timovima, obnovu infrastrukture i hitnu pomoć za hiljade pogođenih porodica.
Kontext i posledice
Ova tragedija podvlači ranjivost planinskih i glečerskih regiona na ekstremne vremenske i geološke događaje, kao i potrebu za unapređenjem mera za smanjenje rizika i brzu međunarodnu koordinaciju u vanrednim situacijama.
