Avalanches

Hopes of finding survivors have faded as Pakistan troops desperately search for 135 people still buried in an avalanche at the Siachen Glacier.

The Pakistani military will continue rescue efforts to find survivors after an avalanche engulfed an army camp in the mountains of Kashmir.

At least 100 Pakistani soldiers were buried alive in a remote area in the Himalayas when an avalanche crushed their camp.

Rescuers recovered the bodies of 165 people killed by a series of avalanches on a treacherous Afghan mountain pass, an official said on Wednesday.
