Rescuers in Nepal pulled two workers alive from a hydropower tunnel nine to ten days after devastating floods struck the country, bringing the total number rescued from the Trishuli hydropower project to three. A Chinese man and a Nepali woman were rescued in separate operations on Saturday, fueling hopes of reaching others believed trapped in tunnels. The floods, which occurred around August 26, killed more than 1,300 people, with thousands still missing and hundreds potentially trapped in various hydropower project tunnels across the region.
