Nims Dai and Four Climbers Lost on Broad Peak | Dover News
Description
A devastating avalanche on Broad Peak has claimed the lives of five climbers, including legendary British-Nepali mountaineer Nirmal Purja, known as Nims Dai, who famously scaled all 14 eight-thousanders in under seven months. Rescuers have recovered his remains along with those of three others, while two more are still missing — including Pakistani guide Sohail Sakhi, whose body has not yet been found. Amid harsh weather that grounded helicopters, ground teams and military-backed searchers continue risking their lives to bring down all bodies safely. The global climbing community mourns the loss of a true icon whose courage and belief in human potential inspired millions.
