A devastating flash flood along the Nepal-China border has killed at least 172 people, with many more missing after torrents of water, ice, rock and debris tore through communities. The disaster has raised questions over whether earlier warnings could have saved lives downstream. China’s embassy in Nepal denies claims that a dam collapse on its side caused the flooding, saying an earthquake-like glacier collapse occurred in Nepal instead. Beijing says mudslides triggered casualties on both sides of the border, while experts call for stronger cross-border monitoring and early-warning systems. #NepalFloods #China #Nepal #FlashFloods #GlacialCollapse #FloodDisaster #Gyirong #Rasuwagadhi #Himalayas #EarlyWarning #NaturalDisaster #BorderCrisis #Beijing #RescueOperations #BreakingNews~HT.410~PR.498~ED.194~GR.506~VG.HM~
