Nepal buries dead as rescuers seek thousands missing

Nepal was burying on Monday some of the hundreds of bodies retrieved after a deadly, tsunami-like flood crashed through the Himalayan region, sweeping away villages and leaving thousands still missing. The huge wave of ice, rocks and debris that smashed into villages and towns on Wednesday claimed at least 797 lives in both Nepal and Tibet -- across the border in China -- with reports of some bodies possibly swept downstream as far as India.
