At least 579 people have been killed in Nepal after a collapsed glacier triggered a massive flood that tore through homes and roads, while more than 1,900 people remain missing.

At least 517 foreign nationals are among those reported missing, although authorities have produced different figures as the situation continues to develop.

In Tibet, at least five people have died and 558 are reported missing, according to Chinese state media.

Families are also desperately waiting for news of their loved ones.
