Nuwakot: A view of an area affected by flash floods in Nuwakot district, Nepal, on Wednesday, August 26, 2026.
Following the devastating floods in Nepal, Gift of the Givers said it has received a call from the daughter of a South African couple who are missing, to assist in finding them.
The non-profit organisation said the couple was on holiday and the daughter was known to them.
Founder and chairperson of Gift of the Givers, Dr Imtiaz Sooliman said: “We spoke to the tour operator that hosted the couple; he confirmed that a second South African couple and several international tourists are missing and that thousands of homes, shopping malls and businesses have been washed away.”
Sooliman said helicopter surveillance was the only means of access as all roads had been totally destroyed.
