Rescuers pull a survivor from a mostly buried house in a town devastated by floods in Nepal, after the person was earlier believed to have died. Reports describe rescuers hearing a faint cry coming from deep in the mud, leading to the discovery of the survivor.
The articles also say an earlier rescue recovered another survivor from a tunnel. Together, the incidents provide new hope for residents and responders dealing with the aftermath of the flooding. While the outlets focus on the emotional details of the rescues—such as people being presumed dead and then found alive—they consistently describe the same sequence: flood impacts cause people to be trapped, and coordinated search efforts then locate survivors in buried and enclosed spaces.
