A British man was rescued in Nepal nearly a week after devastating flash floods swept through the country, killing over 1,000 people. Nepali authorities have so far rescued 273 foreign citizens, including the British national, following the surge of floodwaters across the Nepal-Tibet border. More than 3,900 people remain missing as of this week.
The Nepali Army led the rescue efforts, responding to the disaster that struck last week. While the rescued man’s identity has not been released, the scale of the flooding has prompted a large-scale search and rescue operation. The floods originated from the Nepal-Tibet border, exacerbating the challenges for rescue teams. The Daily Mail reports over 1,000 people have died, while the BBC and Independent report more than 3,900 remain missing. The ongoing search for the missing continues to be hampered by the remote and mountainous terrain.
