Nepal — the ledger moved

EASING · September 18, 2026 · NO. 0918

THE WATER

A count that is still moving, printed at the vintage it actually has. A reported 1,399 bodies recovered as of Sep 15 in the Bhotekoshi floods and about 6,150 missing as of Sep 16 — up from the roughly 1,386 and 5,130 this page carried yesterday at a Sep-12 vintage. Mixed figures circulate, so the toll is reported rather than pinned, and no fresher official count could be confirmed this run. (Handled with care.)

CONNECTED

Two human ledgers that behaved differently for the first time in a week — Nepal's rose to a reported 1,399 recovered and about 6,150 missing as the search went on, while Pakistan's held frozen at 183 dead and 515 injured on a Sep-11/12 vintage.
