Dozens of Israelis receiving assistance in Nepal following massive flooding, insurance company says
None of the insured travelers is currently believed to be in life-threatening danger, and their families are in regular contact with the situation room.
Dozens of Israeli travelers are receiving aid in Nepal following heavy rain, flooding, and severe weather that disrupted trekking regions, according to PassportCard's situation room. The company is assisting 40 insured travelers in areas like the Annapurna and Manaslu regions, with four requiring medical attention and potential evacuation once conditions improve.
Nepalese authorities have warned of flooding risks, urging travelers to move to safer areas. PassportCard teams are assessing locations and connections between affected areas, with travel across large parts of Nepal severely restricted. The weather is anticipated to weaken gradually, but full restoration of normal travel may take several days.
PassportCard's situation room remains operational, assisting travelers and their families until the emergency concludes.
