Mass burials held in Nepal as bodies wash up after catastrophic flooding
Every day, new bodies are recovered in Nepal, but many remain unidentifiable. Several days after the disaster, some are already in an advanced state of decomposition. Morgues in the country's main cities are reaching capacity. Faced with the influx of remains, authorities have begun burying them without formal identification. France 24's special correspondents traveled to Bharatpur, in southern Nepal, to one of these burial sites.
