Seven-year-old girl pulled alive from debris in Nepal

A sudden flash flood swept through parts of Nepal, collapsing homes and scattering debris across streets. Among the wreckage, a young girl became trapped under a pile of rubble. Rescue crews arrived on scene within hours, combing through the debris for survivors. Local authorities mobilized additional teams as rain continued, intensifying the urgency of the operation.

After an intensive search, they succeeded in pulling the child alive from the collapsed material. Rescuers followed a persistent meowing that turned out to be a cat’s cry echoing through the debris. The sound led them to a compact void where they discovered the child still alive. One outlet reported she had endured roughly 60 hours beneath the rubble.

Age reports differ; sources label her as five, six or seven years old. The discovery was captured on video and shared by News18, highlighting the moment the rescuers realized the cat’s cry had been a human plea. The child was swiftly lifted from the rubble and handed to medical personnel for assessment. Reports from The Telegraph and NHK World-Japan confirm she is now in safe custody, with emergency services continuing broader flood relief efforts across the affected region.
