Nepal — a ledger frozen at vintage, access still the obstacle

EASING · September 17, 2026 · NO. 0917

THE WATER

A reported ~1,386 dead and ~5,130 missing at a Sep-12 vintage, frozen: this run surfaced only older vintages, so no fresher official count could be confirmed and none is invented. Recovery continues with access the main obstacle. Climate attribution is omitted per governance. (Handled with care.)
