Death toll in Nepal flood tops 1,000 as Nepal rescuers reach remote areas in search

The death toll from severe flooding in Nepal has surpassed 1,000, as rescue operations intensify in the wake of the disaster. Search teams are currently navigating through mud, rocks, and debris to locate survivors and victims in remote regions of the country.

Authorities are managing two distinct challenges: the search for approximately 4,000 individuals who remain unaccounted for, and the extraction of at least 639 people currently stranded at various hydropower stations. These facilities have become a primary focus for rescue efforts as teams utilize search dogs to reach those trapped in devastated areas.
