“The offer of assistance is natural. Our security agencies are conducting the search-and-rescue operation. For now, we do not require such assistance,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lok Bahadur Chhetri said, according to The Guardian.

South Korea’s Foreign Ministry said that Nepal does not currently plan to accept foreign rescue teams.

A South Korean rapid-response team is in Kathmandu but has not been deployed, while Seoul said it would continue discussions with the Nepalese authorities.

South Korea has pledged $1 million in humanitarian aid through international organizations.

In Nepal, nine South Koreans working at a hydropower plant are reported missing, while another 10 are stranded

The Nepalese police said that the death toll from the flash floods that struck the country has risen to 469, authorities said on Friday.
