Jammu: Heavy rainfall accompanied by a flash flood and landslide triggered massive destruction in Thathri area of Doda district in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, damaging houses, burying shops and vehicles, and forcing closure of a key highway.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, local residents said the cloudburst struck with tremendous force, completely damaging at least 10 residential houses while several others suffered partial damage. Around 10 shops were also buried under debris and a number of vehicles remain trapped.<\/p>\n

Eyewitnesses said several vehicles were swept away by the flash flood into the Chenab River. The exact number of vehicles lost and overall damage is yet to be officially confirmed.<\/p>\n

The landslide also led to the closure of the Doda\u2013Batote\u2013Kishtwar National Highway, disrupting traffic and affecting connectivity in the region.<\/p>\n

Commuters and residents have been advised to avoid unnecessary travel and stay away from landslide-prone areas. No official reports of casualties were available immediately, while assessment of the damage was continuing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
