11 personnel from the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) and Fire Services went missing after two rescue boats capsized in Telangana’s Khammam district on Wednesday. The teams were trying to rescue five fishermen trapped in the overflowing Bethupalli tank. Three firefighters had earlier become stranded after their boat developed a technical problem. They were later rescued. However, both boats carrying the rescue teams capsized in strong currents. NDRF teams have joined the search operation. Drones will also be used to drop life jackets. Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has directed officials to speed up rescue efforts.
