China confirms 261 missing foreigners as border barrier lake stabilizes
Chinese authorities confirmed 261 missing foreigners from 23 countries in Tibet following the Himalayan floods, while monitoring data indicates the primary barrier lake formed by the mudslide is now under control. The disaster, triggered by a glacier collapse, has resulted in a combined death toll of at least 810 across both nations, with thousands still unaccounted for. International aid is flowing in, though discrepancies remain regarding casualty figures and the scale of the crisis.
