It seems that a human early warning system saved many lives "One of the shepherds, Wasiyat Khan from Rawshan village, was near the glacier when he used his mobile phone to alert the community about the impending flood." tribune.com.pk/story/256303... Pictures from www.linkedin.com/posts/melain...

High resolution image from Google Earth (July 2017) shows the catchment of the lake that collapsed in 2025

Before collapsing, the glacial lake was rapidly growing fed by snow melt.

You're right.. It's obvious when looking at the images in 3D

Yes, I had the same thoughts. Some downstream lakes look a bit bigger and the reason why the debris flow started there is unclear to me as well..

I also derived a new elevation model from the aerial images, allowing me to visualize the elevation change in the affected areas.
The rocks and debris in the valley are locally up to 32m thick and I estimate the total displaced volume is about 11 million cubic meters. #Blatten

Why? here its a strike-slip earthquake, the scenes are not cloudy and S2 offers a better spatial resolution than S1 for horizontal offset tracking.
