Arab climbers among 10 dead in avalanche
Ten climbers died in an avalanche on Mount Broad Peak in the Karakoram mountain range along the Pakistan-China border. Among the victims were the renowned Nepalese mountaineer Nirmal Purja and Omani climber Nuzaira Al Harithi, along with seven others from various countries. The incident occurred when a block of ice collapsed on the mountain, which stands at 8,051 meters—one of the highest peaks in the world and among the most challenging ascents in Gilgit-Baltistan. Purja is considered one of the leading climbers who has achieved notable records, including being the fastest to summit all twelve peaks in less than six months.
