A devastating avalanche in Nepal may have been caused by a glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF). Experts believe a large mass of ice likely broke off from a melting glacier and rapidly melted, triggering the surge of water and debris. Several hikers, including Hungarian nationals, are currently missing following the disaster. The incident highlights the increasing risks posed by glacial melt in the Himalayas due to climate change. Rescue efforts are underway, but challenging terrain and ongoing weather conditions are hindering progress. Authorities are assessing the full extent of the damage and the number of those affected. This event underscores the vulnerability of communities and trekkers to these increasingly frequent and powerful natural hazards.
