An aerial view shows houses buried under mud in Baireni, Dhading district, on August 30, 2026, as the death toll from catastrophic flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border rose to at least 750 with more than 3,000 people still missing five days after a glacial collapse swept through the region. The death toll from last week's catastrophic glacier collapse and flood along the Nepal-Tibet border climbed to at least 750 on Sunday — 734 confirmed in Nepal and 16 in China's Tibet region — as monsoon rain swelled the Trishuli River overnight and forced rescue teams to temporarily abandon efforts to reach more than 100 workers believed alive in flooded hydropower tunnels, now the single most urgent focus of a disaster operation entering its fifth day. Nepal's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority reported 2,498 people still missing on the Nepali side as of Sunday, including 589 foreign nationals.
