Nepal's Catastrophic Floods: A Global Response is Long Overdue The devastating flash flood that ravaged Nepal's Himalayan border region on August 26 has left a trail of death and devastation in its wake.
At least 1,204 people have been killed, with over 4,200 still missing, including 29 Canadians who remain unaccounted for one week after the disaster struck.
The sheer scale of the tragedy is hindering rescue efforts, but it's not just logistical challenges that are hampering the search for survivors.
