  "summary": "Authorities in Nepal have carried out temporary burials of hundreds of unidentified flood victims, sparking public outrage. The public has accused authorities of not following Hindu burial rites and mismanaging the situation, according to Euronews.\n\nThe flooding in Nepal has displaced many people, with some receiving support from international donors. Lee Know, a member of the K-pop boy band Stray Kids, donated 100 million won, approximately $72,000, to World Vision on August 28 to aid relief efforts. The funds will be used for food, temporary housing, clean water, and sanitation programs for those affected by the flooding.\n\nThe public's reaction to the temporary burials has been one of outrage, with many expressing dissatisfaction with the authorities' handling of the situation.",
