An avalanche smashed into a Pakistani army base on a Himalayan glacier on Saturday, burying around 100 soldiers, the military said. Helicopters, sniffer dogs and troops were deployed to the remote Siachen Glacier to rescue those trapped, according to a military statement. Maj. Gen. Athar Abbas, the army spokesman, said he had no word on whether any people had survived the avalanche. The avalanche hit a battalion headquarters in the glacier's Gayari sector at 5:45 a.m, according to a security official quoted by the Associated Press.
