Nepal's President Ramchandra Paudel has dissolved parliament and called for snap elections on March 5 after appointing Sushila Karki as the country's interim prime minister. This follows a week of deadly "Gen Z"-led anti-graft protests that resulted in the resignation of former Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli.

• At least 51 people were killed and more than 1,300 injured during the widespread protests, sparked by a social media ban.
• Sushila Karki, a former Chief Justice, is Nepal's first woman prime minister.
• Families of those killed are demanding martyr status and compensation, some refusing to collect bodies from the morgue until demands are met.
