Las autoridades de Nepal elevan a cerca de 470 los fallecidos por inundaciones

Nepal's death toll from devastating floods in the northern region has climbed to nearly 470 people, Levante-EMV reported. The disaster has also left 977 people missing, including 517 foreign nationals caught in the catastrophe.
Heavy rains triggered severe flooding across Nepal's northern areas. The water destroyed homes, washed away infrastructure, and trapped thousands of people. Rescue teams worked around the clock to reach survivors in remote mountain villages.
More than half of the 977 missing people are foreigners—517 according to Información.Tourists and workers from other countries were visiting or working in Nepal when the floods struck. Authorities are working with embassies to identify and locate these individuals.
Nepal's disaster response teams face enormous challenges. Roads remain blocked by debris and mud. El Correo Gallego noted that rescue workers are using boats, ropes, and helicopters to reach isolated survivors. Many communities remain cut off from aid.
The 470 confirmed deaths may increase as search and rescue operations continue. El Periódico reported that many bodies remain unrecovered in remote areas. Authorities warn that the final toll could be significantly higher once all regions are fully assessed.
