A deadly flash flood and mudslide along the Nepal-Tibet border has left over 800 UK nationals missing, according to police reports. The disaster, which struck in late June, has claimed at least 165 lives, with hundreds of foreign nationals from multiple countries still unaccounted for. Among the missing are two teenagers, aged 13 and 14, whose families are now searching for them.
Nepal’s authorities confirmed that more than 826 people are missing, with over 529 of them being tourists. The UK is among several nations affected, with officials working closely with local authorities to locate stranded citizens. The flood, which was triggered by heavy rainfall, has caused widespread damage in mountainous regions, complicating rescue efforts.
International aid teams are on the ground, but the remote terrain and ongoing weather conditions have slowed operations. The death toll is expected to rise as search and recovery efforts continue. Families of the missing are awaiting official updates, with many expressing hope that the teenagers will be found safely.
