"Search for Missing Sherpas Intensifies on Everest Ahead of Climbing Season"
Three Nepali Sherpas are missing after being buried by a block of snow on Mount Everest while delivering materials to construct and clear a route for this year's spring climbing season. A search and rescue operation is underway, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to locate them. Mountaineering is a significant source of revenue for Nepal, employing large teams of Sherpas, guides, and porters to support groups of climbers.
