Episode Details

A glacier collapse triggered catastrophic flash floods along the Nepal-China border, killing at least 353 people and leaving over 1,300 missing—including foreign nationals and pilgrims. Entire villages were erased by torrents of water and mud, roads and bridges destroyed, and rescue efforts hampered by terrain and damage. Helicopters now carry survivors to Kathmandu as bodies are found downstream. Families wait in agony for news, many of the missing on sacred pilgrimages. The UN has pledged $2 million for relief, while experts blame climate-driven glacial melt. Authorities warn of further danger from a potentially overflowing lake. The world watches as search teams race against time to save lives and deliver aid to those left homeless.
