Tap title to read story
Violent clashes between security forces and Gen Z protesters in Kathmandu, Nepal, have left at least 37 dead and the government crippled. The prime minister resigned, the president's whereabouts are unknown, and the army is in control. Protesters, seeking to oust corrupt leadership, have proposed a former chief justice as interim leader. Widespread arson and looting have occurred, while a curfew has been intermittently lifted. The annual chariot festival was disrupted, with the living goddess, the Kumari, unable to appear due to security concerns.
