The confirmed death toll from the flash floods in the Himalayas rose to nearly 1,400 on Sunday, authorities in Nepal and China reported.
The majority, 1,341 deaths, were recorded on the Nepalese side. In Tibet, the number rose from 31 to 43 late on Sunday. More than 5,000 people are still missing.
Recovery and search operations are continuing. On Saturday, rescue workers in Nepal recovered two survivors. The chances of finding anyone alive beneath the rubble are diminishing rapidly.
The flash flood swept away a total of 11 hydropower plants that were either operational or under construction, as well as a solar power facility. Hundreds of workers are among the missing. Many are still believed to be trapped in tunnels and shafts at the facilities.
Specialist teams from India, China and South Korea continued to assist the Nepalese army with search-and-rescue operations, the Foreign Ministry in Kathmandu said.
