> A glacier collapse high in the Himalayas triggered catastrophic flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border. More than 270 people are confirmed dead and at least 1,300 remain missing in Nepal and Tibet, while water, mud and rock destroyed settlements, bridges, roads and border infrastructure. Rescue efforts are being hampered by difficult terrain.
