An avalanche struck Broad Peak in Pakistan's Karakoram range on Thursday, leaving 10 climbers, including renowned Nepal-born mountaineer and former Royal Marine Nirmal Purja, feared missing. The international team comprises five Nepalis, a Pakistani, an Omani, an American, a Chinese climber, and another foreign national.
