More than 200 people took part in the rescue operation, and were also joined by the army, air force, disaster management team and foreign experts.
In India, all the workers trapped in the Silkyara-Barkot tunnel for 17 days after the landslide were rescued. The Guardian reported this.
It was noted that the first man was released on the night of November 28. The rescue operation, which lasted more than 400 hours, involved more than 200 people, as well as the army, air force, disaster management team and foreign experts.
The trapped workers received oxygen, food, water and medicine through a water tube, and constant contact was maintained for 17 days.
By the end of last week, the rescue team had reportedly managed to drill through about 50 meters of rubble, and with about 12 meters to go, the drill broke. The specialists still managed to drill the last 12 meters and reach the people.
The Silkyara-Barkot tunnel has no emergency exit and was built due to a geological fault. The National Highways Authority of India has been tasked with inspecting 29 more tunnels under construction across the country.
Recall that on November 12, in the state of Uttarakhand in India, a mountain tunnel collapsed after a landslide, trapping 41 workers.
It was also reported that in India, a bus overturned on a steep slope, about 200 m. 38 people died.
