Flood Survivors Struggle to Reconnect | Brisbane News
Description
Survivors of the Nepal-Tibet flood disaster are struggling to reconnect with loved ones as damaged roads, bridges, and spotty communications make contact nearly impossible—many lost phones or can’t call due to blackouts. Meanwhile, rescuers race against time to save hundreds trapped underground in power stations, with a rare breakthrough: two workers pulled alive after nine days. Amid the chaos, Australia confirms two citizens have been found, but 36 remain missing; federal specialists are now on the ground working with Nepalese teams. With over 1,200 dead and 5,000 missing, Australians have donated $4 million—with the government matching it—bringing total aid to $11 million.
