Nepal's PM quits and flees as his house is burned down by protesters

Nepal's Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has resigned and fled amid widespread protests over a recent social media ban that resulted in at least 19 deaths during a police crackdown. Protesters burned Oli's house and attacked Finance Minister Bishnu Prasad Paudel, who was seen fleeing from an angry mob in Kathmandu.

The unrest was sparked by frustrations over government corruption and the ban on major platforms like Facebook and YouTube, which was lifted shortly before the protests escalated. Demonstrators continued to rally against the government, expressing demands for accountability and justice for those harmed during the protests.
