Himalayan Flash Floods: 669 Dead, Nearly 3,000 Missing Across Nepal and Tibet

Four days after Himalayan flash floods devastated Nepal and Tibet, nearly 3,000 remain missing — 2,426 in Nepal, 554 in Tibet's Gyirong County, including 540 foreigners. Nepal has recovered 669 bodies; some washed downstream into India. A glacial collapse in Tibet sent floodwaters surging along the transboundary Bhote Koshi river into Nepal, erasing entire villages.
