Now, rescue efforts are underway in northern India after flash flooding swept through villages and towns.

現在，在山洪席捲村鎮之後，印度北部正在開展救援工作。

Local reports say at least four people have died and dozens are missing.

當地報導稱，至少有四人死亡，數十人失蹤。

Let me show you some videos shared online showing giant waves of water gushing through various rivers and sending tonnes of muddy water down the hilly terrains.

讓我向大家展示一些在網上分享的影片，這些影片顯示，巨大的水浪從各條河流中湧出，將成噸的渾水衝下丘陵地帶。

Rescue teams, including army personnel, have reached villages which are believed to have been bearing the brunt of those floods.

包括軍隊人員在內的救援隊已抵達據信在洪災中首當其衝的村莊。

With me is Reha Kansara from BBC Verify and thank you for being here with us.

和我在一起的是來自 BBC Verify 的 Reha Kansara，感謝你的加入。

What more can you tell us about the scale and the damage of these floods and where exactly they actually are?

你還能告訴我們這些洪水的規模和破壞程度，以及它們的具體位置嗎？

Well, as you said, there have been many villages that have been damaged in its path and we've been looking at multiple videos from social media,

正如你所說，有許多村莊在洪水沖刷過程中遭到了破壞，我們已經從社交媒體上看到了多部影片，

but there is one in particular, for better use of words, that has taken social media by storm, and it's the one that you showed of a village being destroyed, literally submerged and destroyed as water gushed down.

但有一部影片在社交媒體上引起了軒然大波，就是你展示的那部，一個村莊被洪水淹沒和摧毀。

Now, that video we verified using satellite imagery and weather data from today and it shows a village in Uttarakhand in northern India.

現在，我們利用今天的衛星影像和氣象數據對這部影片進行了核實，影片顯示的是印度北部北阿坎德邦的一個村莊。

We have to think about its location in terms of it being in the Himalayas.

我們必須考慮到它位於喜馬拉雅山的位置。

You know, it's a vast chain of mountains.

你知道，那是一條巨大的山脈鏈。

Just imagine, like a waterfall coming down at you, taking out everything from its path.

想象一下，它就像瀑布一樣向你傾瀉而下，帶走沿途的一切。

What we know is that it has essentially destroyed that village.

我們所知道的是，它基本上摧毀了那個村莊。

Eyewitnesses say from another village that it literally took out everything.

另一個村莊的目擊者說，它簡直摧毀了一切。

Tell me a little more as we continue to look at these pictures and exactly as you described, they are devastating when you see them and they continue there.

當我們繼續看這些照片時，請告訴我更多的資訊，正如你所描述的，當你看到這些照片時，它們是毀滅性的，而且它們還在繼續。

Where did the floods start and where has it actually spread to?

洪水從哪裡開始，又蔓延到了哪裡？

Well, it's been reported that it took place around 1.30pm local time in India.

據報導，事件發生在印度當地時間下午 1 點半左右。

So that's roughly around 8am here in the UK.

所以是英國的時間大概是早上 8 點左右。

And it was spurred on by a cloudburst over the Kirganga River.

基爾甘加河上空的雲層暴漲也刺激了它。

A cloudburst is an extreme sudden downpour of rain over a small area in a very short period of time and that's what led to this flash flood.

「暴雨」是指在極短的時間內，在小範圍內突然降下的特大暴雨，這就是導致這次山洪暴發的原因。

And it's not something we've been, you know, this is what we've heard.

It's been reported by officials and local authorities, but it's not something we've been able to verify ourselves.

印度地方當局都報告了這一情況，但我們無法親自核實。

Eyewitnesses again, as I've said, have told the BBC that the water has turned into a sludge, which is now blocking part of the region's main river and essentially it's created an artificial lake and has submerged vast areas of land.

正如我所說的那樣，目擊者再次告訴 BBC，海水已經變成了淤泥，現在已經堵住了該地區主要河流的一部分，基本上形成了一個人工湖，淹沒了大片土地。

Well, that's exactly what we're seeing in these pictures.

這正是我們從這些照片中看到的。

You can see the waters that you were describing, the sludge it's turned into and you can see the height there of that sludge and the rooftops of what presumably was a large village, that whole area trapped by all of this.

你可以看到你所描述的水域，看到它變成的淤泥，你還可以看到淤泥的高度，以及大概是一個大村莊的屋頂，整個地區都被這一切困住了。

Tell me a little more about what is happening on the grounds, the various rescue efforts.

請向我詳細介紹一下現場的情況，以及各種救援工作。

So rescue efforts and relief efforts are happening.

I think the army and the paramilitaries in the area are taking care of it.

我認為軍隊和準軍事部隊正在處理此事。

Some people are being treated for their injuries.

What we know, what's been reported is that at least four people have died and about 50 people are missing.

我們知道，據報導至少有四人死亡，約 50 人失蹤。

What we also know is that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he put on X, formerly known as Twitter, he offered his condolences to people who've been affected by this tragedy.

我們還知道，印度總理莫迪在 X （以前稱為推特）上向受此次悲劇影響的人們表示慰問。

But this isn't, this is floods, floods like this, they happen very often in this region and we've been reporting on it for years.

但像這樣的洪水在這個地區經常發生，我們已經報導了很多年。

So what we do also know is that compared to the past, not as many people have been affected in the same way that would have been affected.

我們也知道，與過去相比，受到同樣影響的人並沒有那麼多。

So there is an upside despite the downside.

儘管有不利因素，但也有有利因素。

That's about all the devastation that we're seeing in those pictures.

這就是我們在照片中看到的所有滿目瘡痍的情況。

Thank you very much for taking us through all of that.

非常感謝你帶我們瞭解這一切。
