Filed · 3 publisher pages · upstream origin unresolved

Rescue workers have resumed a search for hundreds of people still missing two days after catastrophic flash flooding hit the border between Nepal and China.

Their efforts were briefly put on hold on Friday after a lake formed by debris began overflowing, threatening areas already devastated by the disaster.

We have received a notice saying that the lake has broken its banks, and we can see that the level of water in the river is rising.
