All 41 construction workers who became trapped in a tunnel in northern India after a landslide on 12 November have been rescued.

None of the men are thought to have been injured, but the group are being given medical checks at a nearby hospital.

They were extracted one by one via a pipe 90cm (3ft) in diameter, which was inserted through the rubble of the collapsed tunnel in Uttarakhand state.
