TWO workers have been pulled alive from a tunnel in Nepal more than a week after catastrophic floods devastated the region.
The pair were freed from a hydro power tunnel in the Rasuwa district where they had been trapped for nine days.
Images show the men, covered in mud, being carried from the site by rescue crews.
About 900 workers are missing from 12 hydro power projects in Nepal, with around 500 believed to be stuck in tunnels.
At least 1,259 people were killed in flash floods that struck along the Nepal-Tibet border on August 26, with more than 5,000 still missing.
The torrent of floodwater, mud and debris destroyed most of the hydropower projects along the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli rivers.
