Rescuers in Nepal rescue two people alive from a tunnel more than a week after flash floods, with reports saying teams hear “voices” during the operation. Authorities believe additional people may be found, but the exact number remains under review.
The rescue follows a period of intensive search work as floodwaters damaged the area and trapped people underground. The outlets differ mainly in phrasing and emphasis: both reports highlight that rescuers heard voices before the two survivors were recovered alive. They also point to hopes of further rescues, reflecting uncertainty about how many people were in or near the tunnel at the time of the flooding.
Officials indicate they expect a broader operation to continue and have cited an estimate that at least dozens of people may still be recoverable. The overall account centers on the continued rescue effort, the survivors’ recovery, and the “voices” reportedly guiding rescuers, while details about identities and confirmed casualty or survivor numbers are not fully established in the reporting.
