CBC Canada reports that two Metro Vancouver couples are among those missing. The Winnipeg Free Press mentions a Canadian man among those missing, with his brother saying the family is on edge waiting for information.\n\nThe Indian Express provides details on one group of missing people, including an IT entrepreneur's 58-year-old wife, Veena Kulkarni, who was part of a trek led by veteran mountaineer Dr Milind P Chitley. The group, which included around 10 to 12 people, mostly husband-wife pairs who had worked together decades ago, went missing near the Nepal-China border.\n\nRescue efforts are ongoing after devastating floods hit the Timure region of Nepal. The families of those missing are facing a difficult wait for news.",
