Nepal floods death toll reaches 939

The flood toll resulting from the recent floods in Nepal near the Chinese border has risen to 939 deaths. Meanwhile, the avalanches that triggered massive floods have caused nearly 955 fatalities and left over 4,471 people missing in the region. The landslides have led to large quantities of rocks and mud flowing through the Himalayan rivers, destroying cities and damaging power stations. Concurrently, the Nepali government announced that it needs between 4 to 5 billion dollars for reconstruction, and has sent out aid requests to countries such as India, China, and the United States to assist with rescue operations.
