Equipes de busca e resgate retiraram vivos dois homens de um túnel no canteiro de obras da hidrelétrica Trishuli 3A nove dias depois que enchentes repentinas devastaram partes do Nepal, matando mais de 1.300 pessoas. Os dois sobreviventes, o capataz mecânico Sanjay Sah, 30, e o supervisor mecânico Kabir Maharjan, 45, foram encontrados na madrugada de sexta-feira no túnel principal do projeto.
As enchentes, que se acredita terem sido provocadas pelo colapso parcial de uma geleira, lançaram água, rochas e lama pelos vales do Himalaia, devastando comunidades inteiras. Pelo menos 557 trabalhadores do projeto Trishuli 3A continuam desaparecidos, e cerca de 115 acredita-se que estavam presos no túnel principal. Sah, em estado estável, contou aos socorristas que ajudou outros a escapar antes de ficar preso ele mesmo, e disse que manteve o ânimo entoando mantras hindus enquanto esperava ser encontrado. Um dos sobreviventes disse às equipes de resgate que mais pessoas continuam vivas dentro do túnel, o que traz esperança de que outros resgates ainda sejam possíveis.
