At least 105 Indians are missing after massive flash floods swept through Nepal’s Nuwakot and Dhading districts near the Tibet border on Wednesday. The sudden surge of water in the Bhote Koshi River, reportedly from the Tibetan side, washed away villages, homes and infrastructure. The death toll in the Nepal-China border region has risen to nine, while several others remain missing. Rescue operations are under way, though high water levels have made it difficult for helicopters to land in affected areas. Authorities have urged people living along riverbanks to move to safer locations.
