Indian rescuers pulled bodies from mud and rubble on Friday after the latest deadly floods to crash through a Himalayan village killed at least 60 people and washed away dozens more.

Torrents of water and mud driven by intense rain tore through Chisoti village in Kashmir on Thursday, leaving dozens missing, including Hindu pilgrims who were visiting a shrine.

It is the second major deadly flooding disaster in India this month.

Officials said a large makeshift kitchen in Chisoti, where more than 100 pilgrims were, was completely washed away by what Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah reported was a sudden “cloudburst” rain storm.

Arun Shah, 35, had just completed his pilgrimage with his family when the flood struck.
