Zaidi ya watu 3,000 bado hawajulikani walipo Nepal
JUHUDI za kuwaokoa waathiriwa wa mafuriko makubwa katika mpaka wa Nepal na Tibet nchini China zilirejelewa jana, baada ya kusitishwa kwa muda kutokana na hofu ya kutokea kwa mafuriko tena kutokana na kuyeyuka kwa barafu mlimani. Idadi ya waliofariki katika mkasa huo imefikia 633, huku karibu watu 3,000 wakiripotiwa kutoweka. Polisi nchini Nepal ilisema jana kuwa watu 626 wamefariki kutokana na mafuriko hayo, huku Mamlaka ya Kudhibiti Majanga ikiripoti kuwa watu 2,426 bado hawajulikani waliko. Kati ya waliotoweka nchini Nepal, 517 ni raia wa kigeni, ambao huenda ni watalii au wafanyakazi kutoka mataifa mengine. Nchini China, mamlaka ilisema watu wasiopungua saba wamefariki katika eneo la Tibet, huku wengine 554 wakiripotiwa kutoweka. Kutokana na ukubwa wa janga hilo, serikali ya Nepal iliomba msaada maalumu kutoka India na China ili kuongeza uwezo wa operesheni za uokoaji. Timu kutoka mataifa hayo, zikiwemo wataalamu wa uokoaji zilitarajiwa kuwasili jana. Msemaji wa Wizara ya Mashauri ya Kigeni ya Nepal, Lok Bahadur Poudel Chhetri, alisema uamuzi huo ulifanywa kwa dharura kutokana na maisha ya watu kuwa hatarini. "Maisha yako hatarini na hali ni ya dharura sana. Hapo awali Nepal haikutaka msaada kwa sababu haikutaka mkanganyiko unaoweza kutokea wakati timu kubwa zinaelekezwa katika maeneo tofauti," alisema Chhetri. Awali, Nepal ilikataa msaada wa kimataifa kwa hofu kuwa kuwasili kwa vikosi vingi vya uokoaji kungeleta mkanganyiko katika operesheni hizo. Mkasa huo ulianza Jumatano asubuhi baada ya sehemu ya barafu katika milima ya Himalaya kuyeyuka kutoka urefu wa takriban mita 5,200. Barafu hiyo ilishuka kwa kasi kwa zaidi ya mita 1,200, ikikusanya mawe na vifusi kabla ya kutumbukia katika Mto Lende. Mafuriko yaliyofuata ulisomba maeneo ya Rasuwa, Nuwakot na Dhading nchini Nepal, na kusababisha kina cha Mto Trishuli kupanda kwa mita tisa ndani ya dakika 30. Mto Trishuli uliongezeka kina kwa takriban mita tisa ndani ya dakika 30, na kusababisha uharibifu mkubwa katika maeneo yaliyo karibu. Uchunguzi wa Shirika la Utafiti wa Jiolojia la Amerika, USGS, ulidai kuwa tetemeko la ardhi ndilo lililosababisha mkasa huo. Hata hivyo, uchunguzi wa baadaye ulionyesha kuwa mawimbi ya mtikisiko yaliyorekodiwa yalitokana na maporomoko ya ardhi yaliyosababishwa na kuyeyuka kwa barafu. Waokoaji jana waliendelea na shughuli za kuwatafuta manusura na waliotoweka, huku matumaini yakipungua kutokana na muda uliopita tangu mkasa huo utokee. Wakazi katika maeneo yaliyo hatarini wameonywa kuwa tayari kwa uokoaji. Nepal hupokea mvua nyingi wakati wa msimu wa monsoon, lakini wataalamu wameonya kuwa mabadiliko ya hali ya hewa yanaongeza hatari ya kuyeyuka kwa barafu na kutokea kwa mafuriko makubwa.
