Recent international reporting highlights a surge of diverse disasters demanding urgent relief and investigations: a large, fast-moving fire at a Canadian military training base causing multiple deaths and many injuries; deadly stampedes at crowded Hindu religious gatherings in India; and severe weather events from Hurricane Trudy on Mexico’s Pacific coast to storms and floods across Spain and Turkey.
