“Many in the United Kingdom have strong, deep and personal ties to Nepal, not least through the Gurkhas and their astounding contribution to the British Army,” the King wrote. “Together with the British public, we send our deepest condolences to those who have so tragically lost their loved ones and who continue to be affected.”

The King has also said that the UK is ready to support Nepal. “As always, the United Kingdom stands ready to help you support those most in need.”
