Nepal declines foreign rescue help after devastating flood, South Korea says it is ‘negotiating’

Despite this official refusal of international aid, South Korea has stated that it is currently negotiating to deploy its own search teams to the affected regions. The situation remains critical as the country manages the aftermath of the disaster while coordinating with potential international partners like South Korea to determine the possibility of providing specialized search and rescue support.
