"Deadly Glacial Lake Bursts in India: 18 Killed, 100 Missing"

Heavy rains in northeast India caused a Himalayan glacial lake to overflow, resulting in major flooding that has killed at least 18 people and left nearly 100 missing. The flooding, the worst in the region in over 50 years, has affected the lives of 22,000 people and destroyed bridges and infrastructure. The release of water from a nearby dam exacerbated the situation. Rescue operations have been hampered by bad weather conditions, and about 2,500 tourists are stranded in the affected area. Climate change is being blamed for the increasing frequency of deadly weather events in the Himalayas.
