Two construction workers were dramatically rescued from a hydropower tunnel in Nepal nine days after being trapped by devastating flash floods. The workers were pulled to safety in a remarkable operation following days of perilous conditions and challenging access. Deadly flooding triggered by heavy rainfall caused the initial cave-in, leaving the men stranded. Rescue efforts were hampered by ongoing safety concerns within the tunnel and the remote location of the incident. Their survival marks a rare positive outcome amidst widespread destruction caused by the recent monsoon season in Nepal. Authorities have confirmed both workers are receiving medical attention and are in stable condition.
