Dozens of Australians missing after Nepal flood disaster
A glacier in the Himalayas collapsed, sending sudden floods through Gyirong port on the Nepal-China border. Forty-three Australians are among more than 3,000 people still missing. Authorities confirmed at least 810 dead by 30 August. DFAT, Australia's foreign affairs department, has taken over 650 calls from worried families. Fourteen Australian staff are helping in Kathmandu.
