Two people have been rescued from a tunnel in Nepal more than a week after flash floods devastated the Nepal-Tibet border region, resulting in over 1,300 fatalities. The rescues have provided a rare moment of hope for families still anxiously awaiting news of missing relatives.

Nepal's army continues its search and rescue operations, though efforts are hampered by significant accumulations of mud and rocks. The challenging conditions complicate the work of locating any further survivors in the wake of the disaster.
