Men to clear path in last lap of tunnel rescue operation

https://ift.tt/P72Uegd The long wait for the 41 workers trapped inside the partially-collapsed Silkyara tunnel in Uttarkashi for almost a fortnight may stretch for a little more time, as the US-made auger machine, which is drilling through the debris to create an escape passage, stopped again on Friday evening after hitting another obstacle. “The rescue timeline depends on any obstacles that may come in the way of drilling,” NDMA member Lt Gen (retd) Syed Ata Hasnain said at the official briefing.
