00:00A deadly flash flood struck near Nepal's border with Tibet.
00:03Experts say a glacier collapse may have triggered the disaster.
00:07Satellite images show major changes across the mountain valley.
00:10A large section of glacier reportedly broke away at about 5,200 meters.
00:15It then crashed roughly in 200 meters down to the valley floor.
00:19The impact may have carried huge amounts of rock and sediment.
00:23Nearly 100 bodies have been recovered so far.
00:26More than 300 people are still reported missing.
00:28Experts also found signs of significant snowmelt before the flood.
00:32A warm spell may have contributed to the glacier's instability.
00:36Officials are also investigating whether an earthquake played a role.
00:40The disaster sent water, boulders, and sediment through river systems.
00:44Scientists say the exact cause remains under investigation.
00:48Climate change is also being examined as a possible factor.
00:51Nepal has lost nearly one-third of its mountain ice in just over 30 years.
00:55Authorities now face a major recovery in search operation.
