> Ninety-seven-year-old Guna Maya Bohara is recovering in hospital after being pulled from flood debris at her care home in Nepal. Her great-nephew said she looked like a “warrior” returning victorious from battle. The rescue took four hours. Hundreds have been confirmed dead after flash floods scientists believe may have followed a glacier collapse near the Himalayan border with Tibet.
