Glacial Collapse Triggers Deadly Floods | Calgary News

from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A deadly glacial collapse near the Nepal-Tibet border unleashed a catastrophic debris flow, killing at least 362 and leaving over 1,400 missing. Described as an inland tsunami, the icy mudslide obliterated villages, bridges, and vehicles, turning landscapes into “giant graveyards.” Rescue teams, including sniffer dogs, scramble to find survivors amid suffocating mud, many of whom are foreign tourists and Hindu pilgrims. China reports its own casualties and missing citizens. A dangerous dam of debris upstream threatens a second flood, forcing urgent evacuations and heightened caution. International aid is pouring in with blankets and medical supplies as the region braces for more devastation. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
