Uttarakhand glacier burst: Trapped workers up against hypothermia, dip oxygen
北阿坎德邦冰川断裂:被困工人面临体温降低,缺氧问题
TAPOVAN/DEHRADUN: Hope at the other end of the tunnel is kee over 500 rescue personnel going at the Tapovan-Vishnugad hydel project in Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district. As they race against time to rescue over 34 workers believed to be stuck in the 1.6-km-long debris-filled tunnel, their biggest concern is hypothermia – a potentially dangerous drop in body temperature.
隧道的另一端,有500多名救援人员正在加紧救援,他们争分夺秒地营救被困在1.6公里长的隧道里的34名工人,最令人担忧的问题是他们的体温降低。
Meanwhile, the search and rescue teams recovered six more bodies on Tuesday from downstream areas taking the total toll of the tragedy to 32, while 174 people are still reported missing.
与此同时,搜救队周二在下游地区又发现了六具尸体,使总死亡人数达到32人,据报道仍有174人失踪。
While conditions in the area remain chilly, the slush-filled tunnel, experts say, could be much colder. Vivek Pandey, spokesperson of ITBP, said, “The rescue teams are working round the clock and tirelessly to save the trapped workers. However, our immediate concern is about the workers getting hypothermia, which can be fatal in such conditions.”
虽然该地区仍然寒冷,但专家表示,充满泥浆的隧道可能会更冷。印藏边境警察部队发言人Vivek Pandey说:“救援队正夜以继日地营救被困工人。然而,我们现在担心的是被困人员体温过低,在这样的条件下,这可能是致命的。”
Pandey said the trapped workers have one JCB and two light vehicles with them inside the tunnel, which might come in handy for them to take shelter in.
Pandey说,工人被困的隧道里有一辆JCB挖掘机和两辆轻型汽车,他们可以在车上暂避。
The 25-foot-high and 25-foot-wide headrace tunnel – a structure that carries water to the power generators – was completely filled with debris when the rescue operations began on Sunday. It has become partially filled with slush again after they cleared the passage, which is hampering rescue operations.
周日救援行动开始时,25英尺高、25英尺宽的引水隧道已经完全被碎石填满。在清理完通道后,隧道的一部分又被泥浆填满,阻碍了救援行动的开展。
