Nepal flood fears halt rescue activities

A glacial accident and a landslide occurred in the Himalayas on the border between Nepal and China, resulting in the formation of a large lake with a water volume exceeding 2.5 million cubic meters. This poses a threat of catastrophic floods. The collapse caused the death of approximately 543 people and the loss of around 1,000 others in Nepal and Tibet, with flows of rocks, ice, and mud. The lake has disrupted rescue operations, which had resumed after a brief pause, and rescue teams faced significant challenges. Meanwhile, authorities in Nepal and China have taken precautionary measures and issued warnings to stay away from rivers and low-lying areas. Search and rescue efforts continue to find survivors and provide aid.
