Nepal Grapples with Devastating Flash Floods and Landslides Triggered by Avalanche

Nepal's disaster authority reported that an avalanche of rock and ice triggered a recent flash flood, leading to a climbing death toll of 1,410 and leaving 6,055 people still missing. The country has been hit by fresh floods and landslides, with rivers overflowing, highways buried, and trekkers airlifted from affected areas.
