Emergency teams are racing to retrieve survivors from affected zones, two days after a tsunami-like wall of water and mud killed at least 469 people in both Nepal and Tibet.

More than 1,400 people are still missing. The US Geological Survey said the disaster, the deadliest for Nepal since a 2015 earthquake, was caused by a glacial collapse that triggered a vast flow of icy debris.

Nepal has ordered rescuers searching for survivors of deadly floods to get to safety as it reported a debris dam had burst in Tibet, bringing risks of new torrents.
