Greek volleyball player Eva Hadava, who traveled there in late August to compete with the Karnali Yashvis team in the Everest Women's Volleyball League, has also witnessed scenes of chaos in Nepal and has been stranded following the unrest in the country.
The tour, which was scheduled to last two weeks, was abruptly cut short as the country was hit by massive anti-government protests and violent clashes.
In a conversation with Greek media, the athlete declared in shock: "I am in great danger, I cannot speak."
The situation in Kathmandu has spiraled out of control. The parliament has been burned, Prime Minister Oli has resigned, and thousands of young people, mostly students and young workers, have taken to the streets demanding change and an end to corruption.
At least 22 people have lost their lives and more than 100 have been injured in incidents, not only in the capital, but also in other major cities in the country.
The Greek athlete and her teammates, out of fear, were forced to abandon the hotel where they were staying and, according to information, hid for hours in a forest area to protect themselves from the protesters.
"I'm not sure right now. Nepal," she wrote in a Facebook post.
A little later, with a new post, the athlete announced that she was hiding in a forest area: "They are burning all of Nepal, we are hiding in the forest waiting for the army to act."
