6일(현지시간) 카트만두포스트 등 현지 매체들에 따르면 전날 오전 11시께 네팔 중부 간다키주 카스키 지역의 슈퍼세티 수력발전소 공사 현장에서 산사태가 발생했다.

이로 인해 네팔인 현장 노동자 2명이 다쳐 병원으로 옮겨졌으나 숨졌다. 또 다른 노동자 1명은 경상을 입었다.

숨진 노동자들은 이 발전소 진입로를 만들기 위한 굴착 작업 도중 위쪽에서 쏟아져 내린 산사태에 변을 당한 것으로 알려졌다.

Survivors found in flood tunnel in Nepal... Major news, including suspicion of lobbying for candidate Kim Seung-won, police reform, and attack on U.S. troops in Iran

A Korean overseas emergency relief team found a survivor in the light of a flashlight in a hydroelectric power plant tunnel in Nepal, and Kim Seung-won, the candidate for Minister of Justice, refuted the allegations of lobbying by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety by cutting out the front and back of the transcript, saying it was a political offensive. The National Police Agency launched an organization dedicated to police reform next week, and Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that it attacked a U.S. aircraft carrier and destroyer with ballistic missiles. In addition, 80% of medical school dropouts are from rural areas, and it is predicted that one in 10 elderly people will suffer from dementia by 2040.

Ukraine seeks revenue from adult film industry to cover war costs

Ukraine is seeking to legalize the adult content industry to resolve tax revenue shortfalls caused by the long-term war with Russia. Currently, the production, distribution, and possession of adult content is illegal, but in reality, a large-scale industry has formed, and some models are moving their activities overseas as tax authorities attempt to tax them. Ukraine's parliament is considering a bill to legalize adult content, hoping to secure up to $25 million in annual tax revenue.
