A tunnelling expert told the BBC that a specific Goldilocks zone within the structure might still contain other survivors. These efforts follow catastrophic flooding across Nepal and Tibet that left over 270 people dead and 1,300 missing.

Rescue teams are prioritizing the search for approximately 900 workers believed to be trapped in hydropower tunnels. While mass burials have begun in Nepal, thousands of people remain missing across the region. Natural hazards researchers suspect a glacier-related landslide triggered the flash floods and mudslides, warning that human-caused climate change increases the risk of future events.
