At least seven people died after a mountain river was flooded by monsoon rains which swept away the main bridge connecting Nepal with China.

Some 29 people are missing including 17 Chinese nationals. Rescue efforts are underway.

The flooding on the Bhotekoshi River destroyed the Friendship Bridge at Rasuwagadi -- 120 kilometers north of Nepal's capital, Kathmandu.

Xinhua News Agency said on the Chinese side of the border 11 people are reported missing amid the flood. On Nepal's side, at least seven people were killed.

18 are missing -- with the tally including six Chinese nationals who are workers at a China-backed construction project.
