What we don't know

Open questions are tracked here until evidence answers them. The Truism never fills a gap with an assumption.

  • The exact number of missing individuals for whom symbolic funerals have been performed.
  • The identities and locations of the tourists who recently established contact.
  • The total number of foreign tourists who remain missing or unaccounted for in the flood-affected areas.
  • Whether any other individuals remain trapped inside the flooded tunnels.
