Nepal: Trapped Hydropower Workers Believed Alive as Flood Death Toll Passes 1,252
Nepali authorities say 46 workers trapped inside the Rasuwagadhi hydropower tunnel near Tibet are likely alive, over a week after a collapsing glacier sent debris-laden floodwaters roaring 60 miles downstream at 100mph. Excavators and thermal drones are on site. The confirmed death toll exceeds 1,252; more than 4,200 remain missing.
