  1. Prayers all get out.โค

  3. May God preserve and rescue these men in his precious sons' name Jesus๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿฆโœ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ•Žโœก๏ธ

  4. Please, Lord, protect these people and bring them home to their loved ones. Give them and their loved ones comfort and strength to get through this.

  10. People from India are only good at stocking shelves at 7/11

  11. Dumb headline. There is no race against time. They have air, water, food, and communication. They can stay there indefinitely while a rescue plan is executed.

  12. Digging tunnels in Indian Kashmir was a dangerous project from the start as most all Kashmir has unstable and soft mountain soil. Landslide, split opening and sinking of land is normal there.

  13. It is not a race, 5 days passed. Unfortunately they were born in India.

    6. Now this tunnel.
    All in one year, and i don't count bridges and roads that collapse because of flood and landslide. they are uncountable.Such a horrible construction level.

  18. Why is an American news network showing hindoo India news?

  19. Hope all got rescued soon!

  20. Since November 12th!? That was 5 days ago, no word on if they have any supplies/food!?

  24. dang..i hope they all get out safe.

  25. What? No OSHA standards in India?

  26. Maybe they shouldn't have built that unstable tunnel. I know it's cuz they're fighting with China, but what good has it done, aside from stoopid bragging rights?

  27. God please help these people ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ please have them returned safely home in the name of Jesus amen.โค

  28. โค I hope they all get rescued. Tbh India seems to have the friendliest population, my opinion really only based on not ever hearing anything negative about them.
