KUNMING - Fourteen workers were rescued out of a railway tunnel collapse in Southwest China's Yunnan province at early hours of Sunday after more than five days of rescue operation.
The survivors were sent to a hospital nearby for medical treatment and psychological counseling according to their conditions, local authorities said.
However, one person remains missing and the rescue operation continues.
The tunnel collapsed at around 4 pm Monday in Funing County of Zhuang and Miao autonomous prefecture of Wenshan, trapping 15 workers. Rescuers had drilled a hole in the collapsed tunnel and managed to send food, water and flashlights to the workers.
The tunnel, known as Funing No. 1 tunnel, was on a pivotal railway linking Yunnan with South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region.
