Flood Death Toll in Nepal Surpasses 900, Rescue Efforts Ongoing
Rescuers in Nepal and Tibet were still combing the flood‑affected border region on Sunday, following a series of flash floods that have claimed hundreds of lives and left thousands missing. The deluges struck the remote districts along the international boundary, where heavy monsoon rains overwhelmed rivers and swollen streams, causing widespread devastation.
Emergency teams, supported by local authorities, are conducting ground searches while helicopters deliver essential supplies to isolated villages that have been cut off by damaged roads and bridges. The aid flown in includes food, water, medical kits and temporary shelter materials, aimed at supporting both survivors and displaced residents.
The search and rescue operation remains ongoing, with officials urging continued assistance from neighboring countries and international partners to help locate missing persons and provide relief to the affected communities.
