Yala Glacier in Nepal was declared 'dead' in May 2025 after losing most of its ice mass and ceasing to flow.
A glacier is declared "dead" when it has lost the ability to move or regenerate, typically due to accelerated melting caused by climate change. Yala Glacier, located in the Langtang region, had shrunk dramatically over recent decades, becoming a symbol of Himalayan glacier retreat.
