  "account": "OTTAWA - Two RCMP disaster victim identification specialists have arrived in Kathmandu to support Canadian authorities responding to recent flash floods along the Nepal-China border. These experts are aiding in the identification of victims following the devastating floods that struck the region on August 26, claiming over 1,100 lives and leaving around 4,400 people missing.\n\nGlobal Affairs Canada is aware of 29 Canadians and permanent residents in Nepal and Tibet who remain unaccounted for. Senior government officials confirmed on September 3 that efforts are currently underway to collect DNA samples from the families of the missing Canadians. Fortunately, one Canadian has been found safe, while 29 others are still believed to be in the affected area.\n\nIn Kathmandu, authorities have had to bury dozens of unidentified bodies in trenches due to the sheer number of unidentified victims. This report by The Canadian Press was initially published on September 10, 2026.",
