Avalanche Kills Seven Climbers at Nepal's Yalung Ri Base Camp

Imagine a big pile of snow and ice suddenly falling down a mountain.

This happened at the base camp of Yalung Ri, a mountain in Nepal.

Seven people who were part of a climbing expedition were sadly killed by this avalanche.

Among those who died were climbers from Italy, Germany, and France, along with two local guides from Nepal.

Five other climbers, including two from France and two from Nepal, were rescued.

Rescue teams were able to reach the site and recover the bodies of those who perished.

Nepal is a popular place for climbing because it has many tall mountains, and avalanches are a known danger, especially after recent bad weather.
