Nepal tunnel rescue completes after 9 days
Emergency teams in Nepal successfully rescued two workers trapped inside a tunnel of a hydroelectric project after spending nine days beneath devastating floods that engulfed the Trishuli Valley, covering the area with mud and rocks. One worker was brought out alive, while the other was awaiting rescue. The operation required draining water, removing rocks, and pumping oxygen, all amid intense efforts by experts and engineers exchanging plans via WhatsApp. It is believed that around 900 workers are still missing in 12 hydroelectric projects in the region, following floods that have caused the death of at least 1,270 people, according to the Disaster Management Authority.
