Nepal floods: Survivor recalls catastrophe as Army steps up relief efforts at Rasuwa's Dhunge camp

Rescuers are racing against time to locate thousands of people who remain missing a week after devastating flash floods struck Nepal, with the death toll rising beyond 1,100 on Wednesday.

The catastrophe unfolded on 26 August, when an avalanche of ice and rock near the Nepal-Tibet border triggered flash flooding that swept through towns and villages across northern and central regions of the country. (PTI)
