Chinese rescue team finds 'nothing but ruins' at flood-hit Himalayan border crossing

Nepal and Chinese teams have resumed rescue work after a glacier collapse, with a Chinese crew reaching the devastated Gyirong border crossing and finding "nothing but ruins."
The disaster has caused hundreds of deaths and thousands missing — many of them foreign pilgrims — and has affected tens of thousands of people across the region.
Amid the tragedy, a poignant rescue: a mother was reunited with her 8-year-old son who survived by climbing trees; authorities warn flood risks persist from unstable glacial lakes.
