273 Dead After a Glacier Dropped a 'Tsunami from the Sky' on Nepal | 8/27/26

A chunk of Himalayan ice snapped off at about 17,000 feet and turned into what Nepal’s disaster chief called a “tsunami from the sky.” Watch what happened. Around 8:40 a.m. Wednesday, the collapse smashed into a valley, dammed the Lhende River, then let go. A 33-foot wall of water, mud, and debris tore down the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli. Villages were wiped out. About 25 miles of road and 19 bridges are gone. At least 273 people are dead. More than 1,300 are missing. U.S. Geological Survey first reported a 4.4 earthquake north of Kathmandu, then said the seismic reading was the glacier and the debris flow — no quake. This is not a distant postcard. Nepalese officials say 63 American citizens are among the missing, including a California couple on a Mount Kailash pilgrimage. More than 5,000 army and police are in the search. The full show has the rest of the day’s news.
