Rescuers say they are hours away from evacuating 41 construction workers who have been trapped in a collapsed tunnel in India for nearly two weeks now.
They were building the tunnel when a part of it caved in, due to a landslide.
Operations were halted on Thursday morning local time after teams encountered iron rods that obstructed drilling operations.
While the rods were eventually cut down, officials say they need to reassess final evacuation plans.
