Avalanche at Nepal's Himlung Himal Base Camp Leaves 10 Missing Amid Bad Weather
An avalanche struck the base camp of Himlung Himal in Nepal's Manang district on Sunday morning, leaving at least 10 people missing, including climbers and support staff from various expedition companies.

The 7,126-metre peak requires special helicopter permits, complicating rescue efforts. Authorities are monitoring the situation and urging suspension of trekking activities as persistent rain and snow disrupt the region.
