A new provisional toll from floods that occurred last week in Nepal, on the border with China, has risen to 903 dead and 4,247 missing, announced today the Nepalese authority responsible for managing emergency situations.

The floods occurred in the region of Nepal that borders China. The number of fatalities represents a significant increase compared to previous tolls.

The Nepalese authorities responsible for emergency management are the sources of this update on the number of victims. The toll remains provisional, which suggests that the numbers may continue to change as search and rescue operations continue.
