Rescuers Continue Efforts as Death Toll Nears 600 in Catastrophic Nepal-China Border Floods

Catastrophic flash floods, triggered by a Himalayan glacier collapse, have killed nearly 600 people and left almost 2,500 missing along the Nepal-China border. Rescue teams are working through thick mud and airlifting thousands to safety, with warnings of further flooding from a fragile mountain lake. The UN's agency for children reports at least 17,000 children are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance, and the International Red Cross estimates 93,000 people are affected.
