Rescue efforts are intensifying in Nepal as teams work to reach approximately 900 workers who remain missing following devastating flash floods and landslides. The disaster, triggered by a glacier collapse near the Nepal-Tibet border, has already claimed hundreds of lives and left thousands unaccounted for, with entire villages reportedly swept away.
Footage released by the Nepal Army depicts rescue teams pulling mud-caked individuals from tunnels, highlighting the perilous conditions faced by both rescuers and survivors. As each day passes, the hope of finding more people alive diminishes, underscoring the urgency of the ongoing operations to reach those trapped in submerged areas.
