Renewed drilling begins to rescue 40 trapped men
LUCK: Rescuers renewed efforts Thursday to reach 40 men trapped inside a collapsed highway tunnel in India for a fifth day, making slow progress as they began to drill through rock debris and soil. Authorities said they were confident an advanced drilling rig flown in from New Delhi would speed up the rescue at the site in the northern state of Uttarakhand. The plan is to drill a hole and make room for a pipe that can be used by the trapped men to crawl to safety. The drill had penetrated about 3 meters (10 feet) of debris by Thursday
