A flash flood near the Nepal-Tibet border has left at least 95 people dead, with 33 UK nationals among the hundreds reported missing. The disaster struck the Rasuwa region early Wednesday, reportedly triggered by an earthquake that caused an avalanche and subsequent flooding.
The UK Foreign Office is coordinating with Nepalese authorities regarding the missing British citizens, whose ages range from 13 to 65. Rescue efforts are ongoing, with significant numbers of foreign nationals also unaccounted for.
As rescue operations continue, families of the missing UK nationals should stay in close contact with the Foreign Office for updates. Monitor local news for developments on the ground, and be aware of potential travel advisories as the situation evolves.
