Nepali authorities urged villagers on Sunday to move to safer places after a ​flood in a river in the central part of the country ‌swept away several houses and infrastructure, but there were no reports of any casualties.

A dry landslide in Chumnubri village in Gorkha district, about 62 miles west of Kathmandu, ​blocked the Budhi Gandaki River, leading to downstream flooding, authorities said.

The Budhi ​Gandaki is a tributary of the Trishuli River, downstream from ⁠another tributary where a glacier collapse caused a catastrophic flood in August that killed ​1,457 people, with thousands still missing.

“We have asked villagers living along the river ​banks downstream to evacuate and remain safe,” said Dharmendra Kumar Mishra, the Gorkha district’s most senior bureaucrat.

Mishra said about a dozen houses and two suspension bridges had been swept away, ​and a hydroelectric project camp was damaged by the flood.

The flooded river ​carrying muddy sludge is rising and has washed away a highway bridge connecting Gorkha with ‌the neighboring ⁠Dhading district, said Dharam Raj Uprety, chief of the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority.

The army rescued six people from Jagat who were facing the risk of a landslide, Prime Minister Balendra Shah said in a social ​media post.

Another 18 ​workers at the ⁠hydroelectric project that had its camp was damaged escaped to safety, Uprety said.

National disaster authorities alerted people living along ​the river in the Gorkha, Tanahun, Chitwan, East Nawalparasi and ​West Nawalparasi ⁠districts about the flood.

“Please help ensure that people in at-risk areas are moved to safe locations in time and assist search and rescue operations as needed,” the ⁠National ​Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority said in ​a social media post.

Officials said army and police rescue personnel had reached the area and were also ​monitoring the situation from a helicopter.
