Floods that struck Nepal have killed more than 900 people, left thousands missing, and destroyed hundreds of homes, according to reports filed Aug. 31.[^1] The death toll stood at least 900 as of that date, per a separate report from South Korean news outlet Dong-A Ilbo.[^3]

A five-year-old girl named Manisha was rescued from flood debris after her parents believed she was dead, Dong-A Ilbo reported.[^2]

Over 933 workers are missing at 11 hydroelectric sites in Nepal's Bagmati province, the same outlet reported.[^4] The read here is that the missing workers at those sites represent a large share of the unaccounted-for population, though the facts do not establish the condition of the infrastructure or how many of the missing are tied to the flood event itself.
