巴基斯坦與尼泊爾登山者組成的地面救難隊,8月2日在布洛德峰(Broad Peak)海拔約5,700公尺處尋獲尼泊爾裔英國籍登山家普爾加(Nirmal Purja)的遺體,距離他被雪崩捲走已過三天。前一天,他共同創辦的遠徵公司 Elite Exped 在社群媒體上證實其死訊,並稱另外九位同行登山者也未能生還;美聯社等多家媒體隨後報導10人全數罹難。
雪崩發生在7月30日上午,位置在海拔約6,600公尺處。巴基斯坦登山俱樂部(Alpine Club of Pakistan,下稱俱樂部)與美聯社都稱43歲的普爾加是領隊,但雪崩掃過的10人其實是四家遠征公司的成員與客戶,當天正沿同一條路線往三號營推進。普爾加屬於 Elite Exped ;另外三家分別是 Imagine Nepal、Seven Summit Treks以及 Moving Mountains。
與普爾加同時失蹤的,還有五名尼泊爾籍高地登山工作者、一名巴基斯坦嚮導、一名阿曼登山家、一名美國登山者與一名中國籍登山者。截至8月4日,事發五天後已尋獲九人,但只有三具遺體被運下山,普爾加仍留在海拔5,000公尺的陡坡上。
