Description

Ten Torontonians are missing after catastrophic flash floods and mudslides in Nepal, part of a disaster that has killed over 500 people near the Nepal-China border. Triggered by a massive glacial collapse caused by seismic activity, the flood unleashed biblical-scale torrents of debris, swallowing entire communities and leaving hundreds—including dozens of Canadians—unaccounted for. Experts link climate-driven glacier melt to increased avalanche risks, underscoring how warming temperatures heighten dangers in mountainous regions. Search efforts continue amid treacherous terrain and ongoing instability as the full human toll remains unknown.
