> More than a week after catastrophic floods struck Nepal’s border with China, rescuers pulled two people alive from a hydropower tunnel. Mud had obscured the plant, forcing teams to use satellite images to locate it. Sanjay Sah, 30, was stable and said he stayed hopeful by chanting Hindu mantras; Kabir Maharjan, 45, was critically ill.
