Klimata pārmaiņas ir identificētas kā galvenais faktors ledāja nogruvumam un plūdiem, kas izraisīja smagas sekas Nepālā un Tibetā, kā norādīts World Weather Attribution pētījumā. #KlimataPārmaiņas #Nepāls #Tibeta
De Tibetaanse bevolking lijdt onder de schadelijke gevolgen van Chinese grondstofwinning en waterkrachtcentrales, waarvan zij geen zeggenschap hebben, terwijl hun leefgebied steeds verder wordt vernietigd en ze gedwongen worden verplaatst. #Tibet #grondstofwinning #milieu
Ārlietu ministrija informē, ka visi 33 Latvijas tūristi, kas pazuda Nepālā, visticamāk, ir atradušies Tibetas pusē katastrofas brīdi, un tiek veikta to DNS salīdzināšana un pastiprināta informācijas apmaiņa ar tuviniekiem. #NepālasPlūdi #PazudušieTūristi #ĀrlietuMinistrija
Ķīna apstiprinājusi, ka 33 pazudušie Latvijas ceļotāji plūdu laikā atradās Tibetas pusē, un aicinājusi Latviju nosūtīt DNS paraugus salīdzināšanai. #Himalaji #plūdi #Latvija
Ārlietu ministrija norādījusi, ka 33 bezvēsts pazudušie Latvijas valstspiederīgie katastrofālo plūdu laikā, visticamāk, atradušies Tibetas teritorijā Ķīnā. #Latvija #Tibeta #Nepāla
Ķīnas ārlietu ministrija pirmo reizi ļāvusi Rietumu žurnālistiem apmeklēt plūdos iznīcināto robežpunktu Kironā, kur notiek meklēšanas darbi simtiem bez vēsts pazudušo cilvēku, pēc katastrofām, ko izraisījusi ledāja nogruvums. #Ķīna #plūdi #Tibeta
Per potvynį Nepale ir Tibete žuvusių žmonių skaičius išaugo iki daugiau kaip 1 270, o gelbėjimo komandos vis dar ieško daugiau nei 4 750 dingusių asmenų. #Nepalas #Tibetaspotvynis #gelbėjimoekipažas
U katastrofalnim poplavama na granici Nepala i Tibeta poginulo je gotovo tisuću ljudi, dok se 3925 osoba vodi kao nestalo, a spasioci se suočavaju s izazovima pronalaska preživjelih unutar urušenih tunela, koristeći eksploziv za probijanje. #Nepal #poplave #spašavanje
Nepālā plūdos bojāgājušo skaits sasniedz 1127, kamēr 4858 cilvēki tiek uzskatīti par pazudušiem, bet Ķīnā plūdos Tibetā ir 16 bojāgājušie un 546 pazudušie, tomēr tiek ziņots par iespējamu informācijas slēpšanu no varasiestādēm. #Nepāla #plūdi #informācijascenzūra
La Chine est accusée de minimiser le bilan humain de la crue dévastatrice au Népal et au Tibet, ne rapportant que 16 morts et 546 disparus au Tibet, alors que des estimations non officielles suggèrent près de 1 000 morts au Népal et un nombre élevé de disparus, suscitant des inquiétudes parmi la communauté tibétaine en exil. #Népal #Tibet #Inondations
Bojāgājušo skaits katastrofālajos plūdos un dubļu nogruvumos Himalajos Nepālā un Ķīnas Tibetas reģionā pārsniedzis 900, bet 4793 cilvēki tiek uzskatīti par pazudušiem. #Nepāla #Himalaji #plūdi
KAILAŠA MŪŽĪGAIS KLUSUMS UN SVĒTĀS SKUMJAS. Kailašs neraud. Tas klusē, kamēr zeme zem tā plaisā un cilvēku dzīvības aiztek līdz ar ledāju straumēm. 🏔️ Šajās dienās, kad Tibetas un Nepālas ielejas pārvērtušās skumju upēs, svētais kalns stāv nesatricināms savā skarbajā, baltajā varenībā. Tas neatbild uz jautājumu kāpēc, bet pieņem katru lūgšanu, katru pēdējo elpas vilcienu. Tiem, kas palika kalna pakājē, fiziskā kora, svētais loks ir noslēgusies. Viņu ceļš pārtapa mūžībā, pēdējam skatienam paliekot vērstam pret debesīm. Kailašs nepaņem dzīvības aiz ļaunuma, tas tikai maigi ieaijā mūžībā tos, kuru ceļš noslēdzās tā svētajā pakājē, pārvēršot viņu pēdējos elpas vilcienus nemirstīgā kalnu klusumā.✨ Lai tavs ceļš mājup ved caur Kailaša balto klusumu. Tu aizgāji tur, kur zeme sniedzas līdz debesīm, un tava pēdējā taka pārtapa mūžībā, ko ieskauj Himalaju svētais miers. Mēs tevi paturēsim sirdīs - tikpat tīru, gaišu un brīvu, kāds ir šis kalns saullēktā. Atpūties mierā, kalnu bērns. 🙏🤍 #Kailash #Himalayas #InMemoriam #Tibet #Nepal #Kora #svētaiskalns Foto:@JurisUlmanis #Kailash #Himalayas #Tibet
Ārlietu ministrija ziņo, ka šobrīd Nepālā nav identificēti Latvijas iedzīvotāji starp izglābtajiem, lai gan viena Latvijas pilsonis ir drošībā Tibetā, un kopumā ir ziņas par 39 tūristiem no Latvijas, no kuriem 34 ir no divām tūristu grupām. #Nepāla #tūrisms #dabasvietas
