Death toll from flash floods rises with rescuers in Nepal and China working to find hundreds missing

Rescuers in Nepal and China are working tirelessly to save hundreds of people missing after catastrophic flash floods. Nearly 600 people have died in Nepal, with almost 2,500 still unaccounted for. China's death toll has risen to seven. The floods have damaged a border checkpoint area, leaving debris and mud in its wake. Nepal's army is rescuing over 100 people trapped in a tunnel at a hydropower plant, but thick mud has complicated their efforts.

A new lake formed high in the Himalayan mountains after a glacier collapse, and experts warn it is starting to overflow. Nepal has reversed its decision to allow foreign teams to help with rescue efforts, likely due to pressure from other countries whose citizens are missing.
