Rescuers pull two survivors from Nepal flood debris 10 days after disaster
On September 5, 2026, rescuers in Nepal pulled two people alive from separate locations: a Chinese man from a hydropower tunnel at the Trishuli project and a woman from a flooded house in Nuwakot, 10 days after catastrophic flash floods struck the Nepal-China border region on August 26. At least 1,300, 1,362 people have been killed and more than 5,000 remain missing, with roughly 900 hydropower workers still unaccounted for across 12 project sites. Specialized rescue teams from Nepal, South Korea, India, China, and the United States are continuing search operations.
