## Resource

Nepal’s flood death toll surpasses 1,300 as rescue teams dig through rubble after a catastrophic glacial collapse unleashed a deadly wall of water and mud. Two workers rescued after nine days offer hope amid the devastation, with over 5,000 still missing — including nearly 5,600 across Nepal and China. International experts join local efforts to search blocked tunnels, while overwhelmed morgues resort to mass graves with DNA collection. Displaced survivors now face harsh conditions in relief camps, prompting the prime minister to vow improved safety and shelter.
