Nepal Army: Rescue Hampered by Mud and Trapped Ices
Nepalese army forces face significant challenges in rescue operations for the missing and stranded after the floods and landslides that struck the Himalayan region between Nepal and China. Thick mud and tunnels have made access to affected areas difficult; so far, 4,400 people have been rescued, while 1,924 others remain missing, including 517 foreigners on the Nepalese side. Additionally, 558 people are missing in Chinese Tibet. Authorities are using 14 helicopters to rescue those stranded, but heavy mud and landing difficulties have slowed the rescue efforts, with ongoing forecasts indicating it will be challenging to determine how long the operations will take.
