Ten climbers have disappeared after an avalanche in Pakistan, including the famous Nepalese

Ten climbers, including renowned Nepali mountaineer Nirmal Purja, have gone missing after an avalanche struck their expedition on Pakistan's Broad Peak mountain. The incident occurred on Thursday, and rescue efforts involving military helicopters, drones, and search teams are underway. Rescue workers have located signals from tracking devices belonging to four climbers, but they cannot yet confirm if they are alive. The location of these climbers is between 6,000 and 7,000 meters above sea level, and reaching them requires a four-hour climb using additional oxygen. The last known position of the group was at around 6,600 meters before contact was lost. Among those missing are climbers from Nepal, Pakistan, Oman, the United States, and China. Pakistani alpine association president Irfan Arshad Khan reported that four bodies were found by ground teams, though this has not been independently confirmed. The Nepalese government continues to list all six of its citizens as missing. The Nepalese Ministry of Tourism has not received any official confirmation of deaths. The Pakistani military has deployed two helicopters to assist in the search, and climbers on nearby peaks such as K2 and K
