77 Kailash Pilgrims and 3 Volunteers Missing After Nepal-Tibet Border Floods
Seventy-seven participants and three volunteers of the Kailash Manasarovar Sojourn remain missing after flash floods at the Nepal-Tibet border. Identification efforts at the Gyirong Port site are ongoing but delayed due to restricted access by Chinese and Nepali authorities. The Isha Foundation is coordinating with Chinese, Indian, and Nepali officials, embassies of 19 countries, and local agencies to support search and rescue and keep families informed. Around 25 Nepali volunteers assist on the ground alongside police and military forces.
