Rescuers have finally pulled two survivors out of a hydropower tunnel in the remote Nepal‑China border region, more than a week after a catastrophic flash flood struck the area. The deluge, triggered by heavy monsoon rains, caused widespread devastation, flooding villages, destroying infrastructure, and leaving dozens of people missing. The rescue operation, which has involved local volunteers, the Nepalese army, and international aid agencies, highlights the ongoing challenges of delivering aid and rebuilding in this rugged, remote terrain. The survivors’ extraction offers a glimmer of hope amid a tragedy that has already claimed lives and left communities in urgent need of assistance.
