At least 1,127 people have died and 4,850 remain missing this Wednesday in Nepal, marking one week since a devastating flash flood wiped out entire settlements across the northern and central regions of the country, according to the latest report from the Nepalese Police.

In recent hours, 77 additional bodies were recovered amidst ongoing search and rescue operations, while the number of missing persons increased by nearly one thousand compared to the previous day after telecommunications were restored in affected areas, enabling access to more information.

Among the deceased are at least 77 children, and more than 400 partial body parts have been retrieved, detailed the report published with data through 8:00 a.m. local time (2:15 GMT).

At least 583 foreign citizens remain missing following the tragedy, official sources confirmed to EFE yesterday.

To date, authorities have rescued 6,541 people, including 580 foreign nationals.

On Monday, the Government of Nepal submitted an urgent request to the board of directors of the Fund for Responding to Loss and Damage (FRLD), a global climate financing mechanism, requesting financial assistance following the deadly flash floods.

The flood, described by local observers as the largest in living memory, reportedly caused water levels to surge 15 to 18 meters above the Trishuli River's normal level, devastating settlements along a 72-kilometer stretch of the waterway.

Furthermore, it destroyed the Rasuwagadhi-Kerung border crossing along the Nepal-China border—a key route for bilateral trade—and impacted dozens of settlements.
