  "summary": "Search teams have successfully recovered the bodies of renowned British-Nepali mountaineer Nirmal Purja and three other missing climbers from Broad Peak in Pakistan's Gilgit-Baltistan region, nearly a week after an avalanche swept away a 10-member international expedition. The Alpine Club of Pakistan described the operation as one of the most technically demanding recovery missions ever carried out on the mountain. The bodies of Purja, Chinese climber Zhong Wang, and Nepali climbers Nima Sherpa and Kilu Sherpa were brought to Broad Peak base Camp, while three other bodies were recovered on August 1. The climbers, from Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, China, Britain, and the United States, were swept away by the avalanche on Thursday, marking one of Pakistan's deadliest mountaineering disasters.",
