[Rescuers in India have freed 41 workers
who had been trapped in a
collapsed Himalayan tunnel for 17 days.

Miners drilled the final section by hand
to reach the workers in the 4.5km (3-mile) tunnel
in Uttarakhand.
The men, who were brought out in wheeled stretchers
through a 90cm (3ft) wide pipe,
were taken to hospital for check-ups.
No one was injured.

Marathon efforts to free them from the
Silkyara tunnel which collapsed on
12 November overcame numerous setbacks.
The mission was ultimately completed on
Tuesday evening thanks to the efforts of a group
of "rat-hole" miners,
who used hand-held drills to break
through the rock.]
