A severe blizzard on the eastern slopes of Mount Everest in Tibet has left nearly 1,000 tourists stranded at high-altitude campsites, prompting large-scale rescue operations. Snowfall since Friday, October 3, evening has blocked access roads, forcing authorities and hundreds of local villagers to work tirelessly to clear paths and evacuate visitors.
