> China has warned that a lake formed by a recent landslide near the Nepal-Tibet border faces a “high risk” of breaching its banks and causing another flood downstream. The warning follows a deadly flash flood in the same area on Wednesday that killed more than 500 people. Scientists say a mountain glacier collapsed into a river, triggering the disaster.
