At least 95 people have died and nearly 400 travelers are missing after sudden flash floods hit northern Nepal.[^1]

The missing include 105 Indian nationals.[^2] Two outlets reported the event independently, and their figures are broadly consistent: both describe the floods as sudden and the missing count as running close to 400.

The read here is that the dual-source corroboration on the missing count makes that figure more reliable than if it had appeared in only one report - though the exact toll, given the nature of flash flooding in remote terrain, is likely still in flux.

What would settle the open questions is an official accounting from Nepali authorities of the total missing, their nationalities, and any recovery operations underway.
