Nepal area avalanche, high velocity mud water natural disaster update September 16, 2026: Although progress was made in the rescue effort, several major challenges are present. The number of unaccounted for individuals is estimated at almost double earler numbers; now about 6,000. Individuals that have been found post mortem are difficult to identify even with DNA help. Only a fraction of Americans that were missing are fully accounted for.


Update August 30, 2026 2:40pm EST: There are about over 80 Americans that are missing

Footage of rescue efforts indicate relatively slow progress. It has been more than a couple of full days now and survivors might starve if they are not rescued. Potential methods and solutions, are to expedite the process, self-evident easier said than done, however, in this case expediting might involve obtaining and putting to use some of the same technologies used during the Spain mud slides disaster late October 2024, such as major drainage pipes. (Ice and formulations from heights in the Himalayan mountains came crashing down and did one of 2 things or both, 1, push down on waters with large force which cause rise in waters, similar to a person getting into a bathtub of water and the water rises, or 2, adding to waters, similar to dumping a gallon of water into a full sink in a kitchen resulting in overflow. 4th and other factors might exist, but not stated here. Hence, techniques and strategies to counter what happened, may be helpful. Get overflow of water and mud out of the way of the rescue paths.)

August 29, 2026: Higher estimate of 3,000 persons missing or dead from flooding central Nepal, China border, Tibet region/s, rescue missions underway; obviously there is much more that needs to be in process

Craziness Stirring, Drone Attacks on Saudi Arabia

Posted by Headline Crest News on Monday, September 16, 2019
Two statements at one time: One, identifying the direction the drones came from might help in getting to the bottom of who exactly is to blame on the drone strike, further details, such as the entire pathway of the drone, from takeoff to finish, would be ideal. Secondly, it is an absurdity to blame Iran without full 100% substantiation, why?,- it is simply contrary to the culture, as a people, as a nation.
Has ever, in the last 75 years, Iran struck Saudi Arabia? At least that the global public is aware of, history books newspapers, TV and media?

What is immediately recognizable, is that pirates in the Gulf region roaming the seas, plausibly, have gained in sophistication, as far as collection of weaponry, parts and materials that could be used for weaponry, and advancing what they build.

What all the sources are of different kinds of metals, polymers, and materials, not limited to mixing compounds from a combination of sources, could not all be listed here. Logic may point to that it may be more convenient for rogue terrorists to access materials closer to the mark of what a terrorist wants, saliently weapons, when they come from other sources of the combat sort. The downfall of regimes such as Saddam Hussein, and Muammar Qhadhafi, in the trickle down ramifications of scrap parts being traded around, changing hands and sold, could eventually land in the hands of vagabond terrorists and pirates.  This is a similar fallout to the evolution of weaponry that is said to have gotten into the hands of terror groups that came to haunt the U.S. after strife in Afghanistan in the 1980s.

The eventuality could be, that pirates and terrorists from no particular country to name, could mimic the weapon building capacity of an established nation, and set the easy to manipulate flight patterns of drones to attempt to mislead as to the source of where it came from.

Natural instincts have bells that toll there, before accepting that there is a situation of an entire established nation outrightly firing a drone on another nation. It really does not matter where the drone landed, an object as such is very close to a declaration of war. A declaration of that sort, especially skipping out so many other steps that build up to that, does not seem to make much sense considering the dynamics in the region.

What concurrently seems to be a logical area to look at, is there was an incident about June 13, 2019, in the Strait of Hormuz area, where a couple of tankers were attacked, and it was difficult to get a clear read on exactly, who did it. This incident around September 15th, 2019, has similarities, -who did it?

Here is a map of the region with some comments:

This past weekend, drones hit the oil facility in Buqayq region of Saudi Arabia.
[There is a story run at https://www.mail.com/news/politics/9396710-trump-us-locked-loaded-response-to-attack-saudis.html#.7518-stage-mostviewed1-4 that in the picture description, seems to have a discrepancy in the spelling of Buqayq, from what most other sources do. It may be a run-off of the AP story at https://www.apnews.com/269744b35e16422fa746b0c1504ceb4f]

Story title, 'Trump: US locked and loaded for response to attack on Saudis'.
It is admirable that Trump is ready to defend Saudi. It is startling that if something in the way of defending takes place, that it might take place. The hope is, that if anything does happen, that it does not happen to a set of people that did not do the drone strike.

Washington Post, longtime renown newspaper, says https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/saudi-tv-channel-fire-at-aramco-facility-no-cause-given/2019/09/13/6f419234-d69e-11e9-8924-1db7dac797fb_story.html, 'Yemen’s Houthi rebels launch drones on 2 big Saudi oil sites'.

   "Since the start of the Saudi-led war, Houthi rebels have been using drones in combat. The first appeared to be off-the-shelf, hobby-kit-style drones. Later, versions nearly identical to Iranian models turned up. Iran denies supplying the Houthis with weapons, although the U.N., the West and Gulf Arab nations say Tehran does."

Where were the drones fired from? Well if they were fired from within Iran or Yemen, the drones would have had to have flown about 350 or 500 miles respectively if from the very edge border of Iran or Yemen. So the drones would have had the capacity to have flown that distance, whereat questions are asked, like, is that really a normal drone flight distance; and, go that distance undetected or unobstructed, very difficult considering flight object recognition abilities.

Far case scenario, there is a lot going on in the region over the past 3 days. How many drone strikes were there, exactly? Where did they land? Who fired the drones? Who built the drones? Where did the materials come from to build the drones? All these need to be answered in the assessment, an obvious angle from the public. There may be many more questions, all while of course, time is involved.

Refer Burma/Myanmar page for air strikes over the EOM February/2026 start of March 2026 time frame. Up for consideration is the be mindful of the whole pie concept. There may very well be a double team set of missile strikes going on on Iran, subject to differing views; however there are still a number of situations going on globally that are weighted, such as violence in different areas of where the Sahel and Northern Africa meet, situations of starvation in the eastern areas of the belt as well; and missile strikes in other regions.
