Thousands in Nepal have lost their homes and livelihoods after last month's devastating floods. A month on, thousands remain missing and the government faces a costly recovery. Prime Minister Balendra Shah highlighted the disaster at the U.N., calling for more international support and cooperation against climate risks. DNA testing has delayed final rites for many families, with 1,453 bodies recovered and 5,644 people missing. Only 112 bodies had been handed over to relatives, and most of the dead were temporarily buried pending formal identification. Reconstruction costs are estimated at $4.77 billion, with efforts focused on restoring roads and bridges, especially in remote areas.
