The Nepali military is currently engaged in a high-stakes rescue mission to save survivors trapped inside a hydropower tunnel in Rasuwa. Footage released by the Prime Minister’s office captures the intensity of the situation, showing soldiers crawling through thick, dangerous layers of mud to reach those stranded within the facility.

Officials estimate that more than 100 individuals were trapped in the tunnel as the nation grapples with the aftermath of severe flooding. This rescue effort is part of a broader, urgent mobilization across the country, as local authorities confirmed on Friday that the national death toll from the floods has reached 475.

While the nation faces a grim recovery, the decisive action of the military remains the primary line of defense in saving lives amidst this natural disaster.
