Beijing: The threat of a lake formed after a glacier collapse bursting near the China-Nepal border where a devastating flood occurred earlier this week has decreased, Chinese authorities said on Saturday, as its size appears to have shrunk.
Satellite images from Thursday to Saturday morning suggest that water in the lake - straddling the China-Nepal border at the confluence of two rivers - has been slowly flowing through, decreasing the reservoir gradually, state broadcaster CCTV reported citing the Water Resources Ministry.
