● Issue Discussion: 'Climate Disaster' Massive Flooding in Nepal

Gambhir Man Shrestha / Former Nepali Mountain Guide
"It rains a lot in Nepal, and while we usually prepare a lot, this time was beyond expectations."
"If air is supplied inside the tunnel, there is a space where people can survive for up to three months."
"The Nepali government is continuously asking for help."

Kyoung Kwang-sook / Former Rescue Team Leader at the 119 Special Rescue Team
"The rescue situation at the site is extremely dangerous, with valley winds blowing very irregularly."
"The situation in Nepal is severe enough that helicopters would have to be grounded if it were in South Korea."
"It is difficult to confirm and find missing persons with debris piled up."
"Replacing helicopters with drones and responding via ground operations is more effective."
"I believe the survival probability inside the tunnel is very high."
"Supplying oxygen inside the tunnel is the top priority, and a rapid response with equipment to remove remaining debris is necessary."
