Nepal flood survivors search for missing loved ones as girl pulled alive from rubble

Rescuers in Nepal are continuing search-and-rescue efforts after recent floods caused widespread destruction, working to locate people still missing in the aftermath of the disaster. Video footage released by Al Jazeera captures the moment rescuers pull a young girl alive from the rubble of a collapsed structure.

The rescue represents one of the rare hopeful moments within a broader operation in which many families remain without news of their loved ones since the flooding struck. The floods caused severe damage to inhabited areas, with several buildings collapsing and trapping people who were inside their homes at the time of the disaster.

Rescue teams continue to work through affected areas, systematically searching through debris in an effort to find survivors and help identify those who did not survive. Alongside the search operations, support is being provided to families who remain uncertain about the fate of their relatives and are awaiting any information from the disaster sites.

The video report highlights both the tragedy and the moments of hope that accompany such events — while some families receive painful news, others, like that of the rescued girl, experience relief upon learning their loved one survived. Search efforts are ongoing, with local rescue services maintaining their commitment to reach all affected locations for as long as necessary to find the remaining missing people and assist affected communities.
