Rescuers in Nepal are focusing on three hydropower project tunnels where they believe dozens of workers could be trapped, authorities said, two weeks after a devastating flood killed hundreds and left thousands missing in the Himalayan country and in neighboring China's Tibet region

Rescue efforts stepped up at a tunnel in Nepal's Rasuwa district, a week after a glacier collapse in the Himalayas unleashed flash floods that devastated the mountainous nation

Rescuers searching for three workers trapped in a flooded Nepal hydro tunnel used a thermal drone. They found no signs of life, with thick mud and sediment filling 80–90% of its height

Rescue workers in Nepal are wading through mounds of debris and mud to find more than 3,000 people still missing after Wednesday’s catastrophic floods. Poor weather conditions have been hindering the painstaking rescue effort, with perhaps the most complicated mission being extricating the hundreds of workers trapped inside flooded hydropower tunnels ⤵️

Rescuers dig through thick mud and debris in Nepal as the threat of more flooding puts the devastated region on high alert. Nearly 3,000 people remain missing across Nepal and Tibet, including about 90 Americans, after catastrophic flash floods tore through the Himalayan region. Search operations were temporarily suspended as heavy rain and fog moved in, while authorities closely watch lakes upstream. Officials say 669 people were killed in Nepal and seven in Tibet, and fears are growing over waterborne disease as monsoon rains continue.

Rescuers continue to search for missing people after a devastating surge of floodwater swept through communities along a river system on the border between Nepal and China. UN aid teams are on the ground to reach communities cut off by the disaster.
