Nepal Border Flood: 469 Dead, 1,500 Still Missing

Nepal police confirmed 469 deaths from an August 26 flash flood along the Nepal-Tibet border, up from 157 two days earlier. A melting glacier triggered the flood. Nearly 1,500 remain missing, including 700 foreign tourists and Indian pilgrims on the Kailash route. Two new lakes formed upstream, prompting Nepal and China to warn of further flood risks for communities downstream.
