Disaster Situation

This is to request for providing us high resolution pre and post disaster imagery for one recent disaster event that happened in mid-Northen Nepal in mountainous area on 17th December (Saturday). It was an unexpected big flash flood that swept away 7 bridges, drinking water supply system, irrigation canals and some houses and fortunately there is no loss of life. Different agencies have been asking DHM about the causes and we have to tell them the truth whether glacial lake has bursted or avalanche or anything else in the upstream.
