Una donna di 64 anni è stata tratta in salvo dai soccorritori in Nepal dopo aver resistito per 10 giorni bloccata nelle rovine della propria casa, rimasta sepolta sotto una spessa coltre di fango e detriti per la devastante alluvione che ha colpito parte del Paese.

L'operazione di salvataggio è avvenuta ieri.

I membri della Forza di polizia armata del Nepal impegnati nei soccorsi hanno esultato quando Chandrika Shrestha, ricoperta di fango, è stata estratta viva dalla sua abitazione, situata a Betrawati, nel distretto di Nuwakot. "Una squadra di polizia l'ha trovata (per caso) durante un'operazione di ripulitura della zona dai fango e detriti. È stata trasportata in elicottero a Kathmandu per ricevere cure mediche", ha spiegato all'Afp il vice sovrintendente della polizia Iqbal Hawari. Un video diffuso dalla Forza di polizia armata mostra soltanto una parte della casa, mentre i piani inferiori risultano completamente sommersi da uno spesso strato di fango.

Le squadre di soccorso stanno lavorando senza sosta alla ricerca di sopravvissuti da quando, il 26 agosto, un muro d'acqua e fango simile a uno tsunami si è abbattuto sulla zona al confine tra Cina e Nepal, in seguito al crollo di ghiaccio e rocce. Finora, secondo l'agenzia nazionale per la gestione delle catastrofi, in Nepal sono stati recuperati 1.344 corpi, mentre circa 5.000 persone risultano disperse. In Cina, i media statali hanno riferito che 31 persone sono morte e 531 risultano disperse. Il bilancio complessivo delle vittime sale così a 1.375 morti, mentre sono oltre 5.500 le persone ancora disperse.

Open Questions

  • Quante persone risultano ancora disperse nell'area?
  • Quali sono le condizioni di salute attuali della superstite?

Tunisian journalist Mohamed Yousfi underwent emergency surgery while in custody

Tunisian journalist Mohamed Yousfi, editor-in-chief of Al Qatiba, underwent emergency surgery after suddenly falling ill while detained by the authorities. The National Union of Tunisian Journalists places the responsibility on the custody authorities and calls for his immediate release to ensure adequate treatment. Yousfi was stopped on September 4 in front of the Express FM headquarters while he was preparing to participate in a broadcast on water politics in Tunisia. The investigation concerns hypotheses of illicit enrichment, money laundering and illicit financial flows, but the union claims that the proceedings are linked to its journalistic activity and freedom of expression.
