Dawa vanished from the upper reaches of the world's highest mountain, specifically between Camp III and Camp IV, an area known as the 'Death Zone', during the final hours of the 2026 climbing season. He was discovered by an organising team 'close to the base camp' with 'some frostbite' but otherwise in good health, having survived seven days without food, bottled oxygen, or a rescue team. The veteran climber, a husband and father, was rushed to hospital for treatment for frostbite and other complications, with his family expressing immense relief after having begun last rite prayers for his soul. A relative raised concerns about the employer's handling of the search and rescue mission, citing issues with the insurance company's response, despite Dawa's extraordinary solo descent.
