The death toll from Wednesday's flash flood in Nepal has risen to 903, according to the latest count. Authorities continue to fear that the death toll will increase significantly in the coming hours.
The affected region is located in the Himalayan zone, an area popular among climbers and pilgrims. The mountainous terrain and the intensity of the floods contributed to the severity of the situation.
Rescue teams are facing great difficulties in the field. The region remains isolated due to the damage caused by the flash floods, which complicates rescue operations and the delivery of humanitarian aid.
Authorities are attempting to rescue the workers who became trapped in the region. The rescue operation is ongoing, although conditions on the ground are extremely difficult.
