Nepal's emergency crews have pulled two workers out of a hydropower tunnel where they had been trapped for nine days. The rescue comes more than a week after flash flooding along the Nepal-Tibet border killed more than 1,200 people. Both men have injuries to their hands and legs and have been airlifted to a hospital in Kathmandu for treatment.
