There is little detail about this landslide – the video was reportedly collected close to the Baltoro Glacier. It was posted on 13 September 2022.
It appears that the event initiated on a near vertical rockface:-

The terrain below is steep and mantled with debris, so the event transitioned into a rockslide or avalanche:-

Fortunately it is reported that there was no-one in the path of the landslide.
