Episode Details

Forty-one Australians are now reported missing after Nepal’s devastating floods, though one hiker, 25-year-old Cara Severino, has safely contacted her family. The Australian Foreign Affairs Department is fielding over 450 calls and coordinating with Nepalese officials to track down all missing persons. Families in Kathmandu are desperate, posting posters of their loved ones as rescue efforts — paused due to flood risks — resume. Australia has pledged $5 million in aid for shelters, food, water, and medical supplies, while four crisis officers and four rapid response specialists are en route to bolster support on the ground.
