Nepal begins mass burials as thousands remain missing
Nepal is undertaking mass burials as thousands remain missing following devastating floods and torrential rains. The river that previously surged like a tsunami from the Himalayas has risen again, compounding the crisis. Rescue efforts are ongoing, with a 6-year-old girl successfully rescued from rubble, while bodies have been found over 150 miles away in India.
The escalating death toll and the inability to process bodies through traditional means highlight the catastrophic scale of the disaster, with ongoing rains posing a continued threat.
The Pope offered a prayer for victims, Chinese search and rescue teams found no survivors in Tibet, and engineers are monitoring a subsiding lake that previously risked a new flood.
