In the wake of a devastating flash flood that struck the border region between Nepal and China last week, Global Affairs Canada has commenced efforts to collect DNA from the families of missing Canadians. Officials reported that the flood has resulted in several Canadians being unaccounted for, prompting the federal government to take proactive steps to help in the identification process. The collection of DNA samples is a crucial part of the search and recovery efforts, with the intention of providing families with answers regarding their loved ones. As the situation develops, Global Affairs continues to liaise with families to offer support during this challenging time.
