▲ Muddy waters surge along the Narayani River in Chitwan, about 100 kilometers from the initial accident site, as recovery operations continue on the 30th (local time) following massive floods in the Himalayan mountainous region along the Nepal-China border.
On the sixth day since massive floods and landslides began in the border region between Nepal and China, the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority of Nepal announced that the death toll from the floods within Nepal stands at least 903, with 4,247 people missing (including 592 foreigners).
Combined with the figures compiled by Chinese authorities for the Xizang (Tibet) Autonomous Region—16 deaths and 546 missing (including 261 foreigners)—the total death toll from these floods reaches at least 919, with 4,793 people missing.
Authorities in India's northern state of Uttar Pradesh, which borders Nepal, stated that they have recovered 17 bodies presumed to be victims of the Nepal floods along the Gandak River, downstream from Nepal's Trishuli River where the flooding occurred.
Indian authorities are currently verifying the identities of these bodies, and they have not yet been included in the official death toll released by Nepali authorities.
