A series of natural disasters, exacerbated by extreme weather linked to climate change, has wreaked havoc across Asia. In Kangding, Sichuan Province, a flash flood and mudslide resulted in four deaths and 23 missing individuals, with significant rescue efforts underway involving hundreds of firefighters and workers. Similar calamities struck other parts of China, including a bridge collapse in Sichuan that killed at least two and left 12 missing, and heavy rains in Hunan province that led to 48 deaths, including 15 from a mudslide. Torrential rains have also devastated India, where over 250 people have died and many more are missing after severe floods and cloudbursts in states like Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. The ongoing monsoon and typhoon season has intensified storms, leading to widespread destruction and loss of life across the region.
