Smoke is shrouding a forest in Lalitpur, Central Nepal, after a reported forest fire incident on April 30, 2024. The hills surrounding the Kathmandu Valley are continuing to billow smoke as they are ravaged by the forest fire. Nepal is witnessing a rise in forest fire incidents this year, smothering the Air Quality Index (AQI). On average, Nepal records at least one thousand incidents of forest fire across the country each year. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
