Two people have been rescued from a tunnel in Nepal more than a week after flash flooding hit the Nepal-Tibet border, killing more than 1,300 people.

An expert tells the BBC a "Goldilocks zone" could be housing more survivors, with 39 thought to be trapped.

Col Jhabindra Reshmi, of Nepal's army, says rescue efforts continue - and that mud and rocks are making entering the tunnels more difficult.

Dramatic footage from earlier shows the moment Sanjaya Shah and Kabir Maharjan are pulled alive from the Trishuli 3A Hydropower Project.

The body of a third person has been found at the site, with authorities saying they likely "died after being caught in floodwater while trying to flee from the tunnel"

The flooding, which hit last Wednesday, is believed to have been caused by a glacial collapse. Thousands of people are still missing - here's how it unfolded

'As long as there is breath, there is hope' - energy minister

Nepal's Energy Minister Biraj Bhakta Shrestha says "we have not lost hope" that more survivors can be saved, as rescue operations continue across the country.

"As long as there is breath, there is hope!" he writes in a post on social media.

"Rescue operations are continuing in all the affected tunnels. Let everyone's efforts and prayers continue."

Shrestha also shared a video of ongoing rescue operations at the Trishuli 3B hydropower site, which is further downstream from the Trishuli 3A tunnel, where two people were rescued this earlier today.

I chanted mantras to give me hope, says tunnel survivor

A hydropower worker who was trapped for nine days in a tunnel says he urged his colleagues to run away but ran out of time to make his own escape.

The mechanical foreman, Sanjay Sah, says: "It was not right for me to run away... My responsibility was to save others."

Sah says he chanted mantras while trapped in the darkness underground and managed to stay in contact with three or four other workers somewhere in the tunnel.

Sah was rescued with fellow survivor Kabir Maharjan, a mechanical supervisor.

Yellow rain warnings issued across parts of Nepal

The Nepal Met Service is running special weather bulletins and the latest one (issued Thursday evening local time) includes a number of yellow rain warnings up to Sunday.

The weather conditions are currently what you would expect for the time of year with the monsoonal showers.

The Nepalese weather services are rated very highly as it is a country rather prone to environmental disasters.

However, they don't have weather radar as there are too many mountains.
