Nepal Flash Floods

U.S. officials report about 90 U.S. citizens remain unaccounted for after catastrophic flash floods hit a border area of China and Nepal. Wednesday's flooding killed hundreds of people. The U.S. State Department says it is not aware of any U.S. deaths, but three Americans have been rescued. Many of the missing were on a pilgrimage to Mount Kailash in Tibet, a sacred site for Hindus and Buddhists. Indian spiritual guru Jaggi Vasudev, also known as Sadhguru, says 77 people from his Isha Foundation were at an immigration center in Tibet when the floods struck. The foundation said that 22 were Americans.

Rescuers have pulled survivors from mud and helicopters have lifted people to safety after flash floods hit Nepal and China. The disaster has killed over 500 people and left more than 1,500 missing. Nepal's disaster management authority reported 538 deaths, while Nepali police increased the number to 547. On the Chinese side, the death toll rose to five. Hundreds of foreigners were in the area for work, trekking or pilgrimage. Authorities warn of more flooding from a new lake. Thousands have been evacuated, and rescue operations continue. Families worldwide hope for news of their missing loved ones.
