  "summary": "A South Korean corporate response team is continuing their search for nine nationals missing since devastating floods hit Nepal last month, officials reported on September 6. Four teams comprising 46 personnel were dispatched by Korea South-East Power Co. to conduct a ground search in mountainous terrain around the construction site where the nine were working when massive floods and landslides struck the area near the Nepal-Tibet border on August 26. The number of search personnel was nearly doubled from two days ago, when two teams comprising a total of 25 people were sent to the scene. The search efforts are focused on mountainous areas, as the company believes the missing individuals may have fled to the highlands at the time of the accident. In addition to ground search operations, the company has also been using drones fitted with thermal imaging and infrared cameras, as well as search dogs, to aid the effort.",
