Kathmandu's International Airport Halted Amid Citywide Demonstrations
In an unexpected turn of events, Nepal's Kathmandu International Airport has announced its closure with immediate effect, causing a ripple in the travel industry. The Civil Aviation Authority made the announcement on Tuesday, citing widespread protests in the Asian country as the reason.

These violent demonstrations, which toppled the government and caused widespread disruption, including at the airport, have led to this unexpected closure.
