At least 22 people have died and over 400 are missing with a torrent of water sweeping away villages and project sites in the region bordering Tibet. Among those missing are 108 Indians who were undertaking the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra&#8211;one of the most demanding religious journeys. The flood surged through the Bhote Koshi River at around 9 am (local time), from the direction of Tibet. The government-organized pilgrimage through this route had already ended. Those impacted were on privately-organized pilgrimages starting from Kathmandu.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/world-news\/as-indians-go-missing-after-nepal-flash-floods-a-look-at-the-kailash-mansarovar-yatra-11962150\n\">https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/world-news\/as-indians-go-missing-after-nepal-flash-floods-a-look-at-the-kailash-mansarovar-yatra-11962150<br><\/a><br>Very shocking video of the floods: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Wb5AjlCU9zk\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Wb5AjlCU9zk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEPAL, August 26, 2026 (ndtv.com) Nepal was hit by a major tragedy on Wednesday morning when flash floods struck the,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23347","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23347","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23347"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23347\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23351,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23347\/revisions\/23351"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
