Rescue teams recovered another body on Wednesday morning following the devastating cloudburst that struck Dharali village in Uttarkashi district, raising the official death toll to five. The cloudburst, which occurred around 1 p.m. on August 5, triggered powerful flash floods that ravaged the region, sweeping away homes, vehicles, and sections of the Uttarkashi-Harsil road.
The latest recovery was made near a debris-strewn stretch downstream from the village, where search and rescue operations have been ongoing despite challenging terrain and continuous rainfall. Authorities fear that more people may still be missing, and efforts are underway to locate them.
(More details awaited)
