What happened

Over 1,300 people are still missing in Nepal and Tibet, a day after catastrophic flooding believed to have been caused by a glacier collapse. A total of 800 foreign tourists are missing across the affected Himalayan region, including South Korean, Indian and Australian nationals, with some of those countries sending their own rescue teams to aid in the search.
