Nepal flood fatalities reach 1,127; 4,858 individuals still unaccounted for
The number of deaths from Nepal's flash floods has increased to 1,127, including 348 victims found in Chitwan. Rescue teams have successfully saved more than 6,500 people, though 4,858 individuals are still missing. The disaster, sparked by an ice-rock slide close to the Nepal-Tibet border on August 26, continues to challenge rescue efforts as persistent rainfall and blocked tunnel paths hinder progress.
