devastating floods that hit the border area between Nepal and Tibet earlier this week.A tsunami-like wall of water and debris ripped through the Himalayan region on Wednesday, killing at least 682 people and sparking a huge rescue effort.On Friday, Chinese officials said 260 foreigners remained missing following the deadly flash floods, while Nepal&#8217;s disaster agency said 517 foreign nationals were missing.
