The sudden floods that hit Nepal and Tibet have already caused at least 800 deaths, according to the latest toll. Authorities report more than 3000 people still missing, and the death toll is feared to continue rising.
Rescue teams face adverse and complex weather conditions on the ground, which significantly hinders search and rescue operations. The bad weather persists in the region, increasing the risk of new floods that could further worsen the humanitarian situation.
Local authorities continue to coordinate emergency efforts, but the conditions on the ground represent a constant challenge for the operatives trying to reach the worst-affected areas.
