Catastrophic flash floods swept through the Nepal-Tibet border region Wednesday, killing at least 160 people with death tolls reported as high as 547 across sources, and leaving hundreds missing. Water surged nearly 30 feet through the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli river corridors, destroying villages, roads and bridges. Hundreds of foreign tourists and pilgrims, including Indian nationals visiting Kailash Mansarovar, remain unaccounted for; rescue operations resumed Thursday after being halted due to flooding concerns.
