The death toll in Nepal has risen to 579, officials have said, after Wednesday's flash flooding devastated the Himalayan border region.
 
A collapsed glacier caused the huge flood wave, local officials said. 
 
The surge tore through houses and roads, and destroyed a key Nepal-Tibet border crossing.
