Ten Toronto Residents Missing After Nepal Flash Floods
Flash floods in Nepal have left ten Toronto residents, part of a larger group on a pilgrimage, unaccounted for. The incident occurred shortly after their arrival at a border crossing into Tibet.
Ten individuals from Toronto are currently missing following severe flash floods that occurred in Nepal this week. These residents were part of a group of 80 members from the Isha Foundation, a non-profit spirituality organization, who were undertaking the sacred Kailash Mansarovar Yatra pilgrimage. The group, comprising individuals from 19 countries, had just reached a Chinese immigration center in Gyirong County, Tibet, when the flooding impacted the area. Communication has been lost with the 80 members, and the foundation is actively working with embassies and officials to gather information and provide updates to the affected families, who are reportedly in shock due to the unexpected and severe nature of the event.
