More than 900 workers are trapped across 11 hydropower projects in Nepal following a devastating flood caused by a glacier collapse.
At least 903 people have been killed, with nearly 5,000 still missing, including at least 590 foreign nationals from 39 countries.
Nepal has sought tunnel rescue expertise from India and China, while stating it does not require broader foreign assistance.
Rescue operations have been repeatedly suspended due to bad weather and fears that an overflowing border lake could trigger fresh flooding.
