Floods in India’s Sikkim kill 10; dozens including 23 army soldiers missing

Al Jazeera  

Heavy rainfall causes a glacial lake to overflow, spurring catastrophic flooding in the remote Himalayan region. At least 10 people have been killed in India’s state of Sikkim and 82 others, including 23 army personnel, are missing after heavy rainfall caused the glacial Lhonak Lake to overflow, spurring catastrophic flooding in the region. “Intense rain has led to this catastrophic situation in Sikkim where the rain has triggered a glacial lake outburst flood and damaged a dam and caused loss of life and caused further damage to roads and infrastructure,” said Miriam Jackson, a senior cryosphere specialist at the Nepal-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development. Heavy rainfall hampered the search for the Indian troops reported missing, with the capital city of Gangtok cut off by road, defence officials said.
