KATHMANDU: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reports that Bipin Joshi, a student from Nepal who vanished during the attack on Israel on Ashoj 20, has been located safely.
According to Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Sewa Lamsal, the Israeli government notified the Nepali embassy that Bipin is safe at the Gaza hospital. Even though it has been informed that Bipin is in the hospital, she stated that efforts are being made to get in touch with him as the circumstances are still unclear.
According to Embassy sources, Bipin is believed to have been among those seized by Israel’s Kibbutz-Alumim Hamas group and subsequently transported to Gaza.
Meanwhile, Bipin’s parents met with Foreign Minister NP Saud a few days ago and demanded that their son be saved safely. According to Foreign Minister Saud, the Israeli government, the Nepali government, the Nepali embassy, and other organizations are working nonstop to ensure Joshi’s safe recovery.
When the Hamas attacked Israel, ten students from Nepal were killed and four others were injured.
