India floods
Torrential rains, flash floods, cloudbursts and landslides in Uttarakhand, northern India, have claimed the lives of at least 130 people and left tens of thousands of pilgrims for Himalayan shrines stranded. Staff working for our local partner, SBMA, in the area are part of the search and rescue operation. These pics were taken by some of our friends in Uttarkashi along the banks of river Ganges. Access is extremely difficult as many roads and bridges have collapsed or been damaged. Communications are also down.
Our thoughts are with everyone who has been affected.
