Kathmandu, Oct 6 (Inditop.com) Thirteen people were killed early Tuesday morning due to landslides in farwestern Nepal, triggered by heavy unseasonal rains.
Police said 12 people, including two women besides children, died in Mastmandu village in remote Dadeldhura district where landslides engulfed nearly a dozen houses.
They were from two families. Most of the victims were children.
Rescuers had succeeded in digging out two teenagers alive from the rubbles.
Heavy rains also lashed Kailali and Kanchanpur districts in the Nepali farwest, bordering India.
