A rescue operation is underway in the southern Indian state of Telangana to save eight construction workers trapped inside a tunnel for over 72 hours. The workers were among around 50 who were working inside the 43km-long tunnel when its roof caved in on Saturday.
Rescuers are facing challenges due to loose soil, mud, and slush inside the tunnel, and have been unable to establish contact with the trapped men or provide them with essential supplies, including oxygen. The rescue efforts continue, with families of the trapped workers anxiously waiting for news of their loved ones.
