Nepal and Tibet floods leave residents stunned and fearing second deadly wave
As international aid begins to arrive, Chinese authorities have warned of a high risk of a breach in a dammed lake formed by a mudslide, which could trigger a second flood in the coming days.
A Durban family is yearning for news of their daughter's safe return after a devastating flash flood event in Nepal. Six South Africans, including 33-year-old Terricia Govender, are reported to be missing following the disaster near the Nepal-Tibet border. The family, located thousands of kilometers away, is at a loss, with mother Linda Govender expressing her helplessness.
The Isha Foundation, which organized Terricia's pilgrimage to Mount Kailash, has informed them that she is among the missing. Despite the devastating news, the family remains hopeful and prays for a miracle, as they await updates from the rescue teams and authorities.
