The flood has caused widespread devastation, with 734 deaths and 2,498 missing reported in Nepal, and 16 deaths and 546 missing in Tibet. Among the missing are 261 foreign nationals, including 49 Indians. Thousands of residents have been displaced, and many are seeking higher ground due to rising river levels. The disaster has also trapped hundreds in tunnels at hydropower plants, complicating rescue efforts. The formation of a new dam and pool of water downstream poses additional risks of further flooding.
