Rescuers searching for 93 missing workers at a hydropower project in Nepal found no sign of anyone inside a tunnel. The workers went missing after severe flooding hit the Rasuwagadhi project in Rasuwa district. The Nepali Army, engineers and a drone team searched the tunnel, including dangerous areas. A thermal drone was used to check the far end, but found no survivors or workers. The search inside the tunnel was later stopped. Nepal has been badly hit by floods since Wednesday. More than 900 people have died and around 4,500 are still missing, according to official reports.
