Catastrophes · Sauvetage dans la neige à DolpaSix touristes indiens bloqués dans la neige à Dolpa, les secouristes tentent d’établir le contactRédigé 1 novembre 2026 à 07:46 UTCRegarderTranscription0:07Heavy snow has stranded six Indian tourists in Nepal's mountains.0:10A Nepal army team has been deployed, but deep snow and unavailable mobile service0:15are hampering the search.0:16Rescuers need to turn a reported location at Danegad into direct contact and an0:20evacuation.0:21The group includes four men and two women.0:23Police say they remain out of contact.0:25They were traveling from Due toward Foxundo Lake when heavy snowfall caught them on0:29their return journey.0:30Danegad is reportedly where the six are stranded, giving the search a more specific0:34target.0:34The initial search area covered two mountain passes.0:37The narrower location could help rescuers, but direct contact with all six still0:41hasn't been confirmed.0:42Officials initially placed the search around Nemla Pass and Baglapass in the0:46mountains of Dolpa.0:47The tourists were heading towards Shea, Fuxundo Lake.0:49Those pass areas were the starting point for efforts to find the group after contact0:52was lost.0:53Dolpa Chief District Officer Juno Hamal says residents warned the tourists about0:57difficult weather and mountain conditions before they continued.1:00She says they became stranded while returning from Duo toward the lake.1:03Snow is now obstructing the effort to reach them.1:06Police official Anil Rajgiri says authorities asked an agency to arrange a search1:10and rescue helicopter.1:12Municipal Chairman Dawa Samduk Gurung describes another obstacle.1:16Mobile communication is unavailable in the mountain passes, leaving officials1:20struggling to learn where the tourists are.1:22The communications gap also makes it difficult to assess how the group is coping.1:26A phone that doesn't answer tells rescuers little about whether someone is moving or1:29sheltering.1:30Gurung says the coverage gap affects information about both their whereabouts and1:34condition.1:34Rescuers face two barriers at once: thick snow and adverse mountain weather make1:39access difficult.1:40While the lack of mobile service cuts off routine information from the people1:43they're trying to reach, the army has deployed a team to locate the tourists and1:46help rescue them.1:47Helicopter arrangements have also progressed beyond the initial request and1:50descriptions of the response, but officials haven't confirmed a departure.1:54An arrival at the group or a completed evacuation.1:57The administration received a report of the stranding before helicopter arrangements2:00were underway.2:01Those administrative dates describe the response.2:03They don't tell us how long the tourists had already been in the snow when officials2:07learned they needed help.2:08The district administration is urging tourists to avoid risky areas and stay in safe2:12locations during the adverse weather.2:14Foxundo Lake draws visitors into this mountain region, and the administration has2:18also published a wider Upper Dolpa visitor tally.2:20The tally records one hundred and forty nine Nepali nationals, forty four visitors2:25from South Asian Regional Association countries, and fifty, one from other foreign2:29countries.2:30That adds up to two hundred and forty-four vessors.2:32The administration hasn't specified the counting period.2:35Six people are the subjects of this search.2:37A separate historical total records four eight hundred and eighty, two visits to2:41Foxundo Lake during the first eleven months of Nepal's fiscal year two thousand and2:44eighty two eighty third.2:46That figure describes past visits and doesn't measure how many people are currently2:49on the trails.2:50Danagad gives the rescue effort a reported destination.2:53Officials still need to confirm reaching all six tourists, assess their condition,2:57and bring them to safety.Lire l’articleChronologie de l’histoireHeyDexQui a rapporté quoiPoints rapportés par plusieurs médias✓Six Indian tourists reported missingConfirmé de façon
