Since April, the Logistics Cluster has handled a total of 14,368 metric tons (mt) of humanitarian cargo for 124 humanitarian organizations. Over 3,600 truckloads have been dispatched from Kathmandu, Deurali and Chautara hubs. Between 12 June and 15 July, 8,329mt of cargo were handled for 73 organisations. Prioritisation for cargo transport is taking place under the list of priorities established by the Humanitarian Country Team.
Logistics operations have been hampered by adverse weather conditions which are expected to continue throughout the monsoon season. Trail conditions continue to deteriorate, slowing down both rehabilitation and last mile transport using porters due to frequent landslides.
