By Paavan MATHEMA Katmandou (AFP) - Il y a dix ans, une avalanche sur l'Everest a enseveli seize guides locaux, braquant les projecteurs sur les dangers considérables auxquels les sherpas népalais sont confrontés pour permettre à des étrangers fortunés de réaliser leurs rêves d'alpinisme. Sans leur travail, essentiel pour tracer les voies d'escalade, fixer les cordes, réparer les échelles et transporter le lourd matériel en altitude, peu d'alpinistes pourraient atteindre le sommet le plus haut du monde. Le 18 avril 2014, un mur de neige s'est abattu sur les Népalais qui, dans l'obscurité glaci...

Katmandou (AFP) - La police népalaise a fait usage mardi de gaz lacrymogènes et de canons à eau alors que des milliers de personnes manifestaient dans la capitale Katmandou pour réclamer la restauration d'une monarchie constitutionnelle et d'un État hindou. Ce pays à majorité hindoue est devenu une république laïque dotée d'un système fédéral en 2008, après que le parlement a aboli la monarchie dans le cadre d'un accord de paix qui a mis fin à une décennie de guerre civile au cours de laquelle plus de 16.000 personnes ont été tuées. "La restauration de la monarchie, une nation hindoue et l'abo...

By Hazel Gandhi A video of a large religious procession in Greater Noida is being shared with a misleading claim that it shows a pilgrimage from Nepal's Janakpur to Ayodhya ahead of the inauguration ceremony of Ram Mandir slated for later this month. BOOM found that the claims are misleading; while there is a pilgrimage organised from Nepal to Ayodhya, this particular video is old and shows a 3-km Kalash Yatra held in Greater Noida ahead of self-styled godman Dhirendra Shastri's sermon. The Ram temple in Ayodhya is set to be inaugurated on January 22, 2024, amid much anticipation and its own s...

Kathmandu (AFP) - A US mountaineer has died on Everest in the fourth fatality on the world's highest peak this climbing season.
