Uttarakhand tunnel: Indian rescue efforts running out of time

The race to rescue 40 trapped construction workers in a collapsed highway tunnel in India has become crucial as it reaches its sixth day, with police confirming the operation is "at full speed".

Rescuers used new equipment to drill deeper into the debris of Silkyara tunnel to fix wide pipes for the workers to crawl to their freedom.

Woman killed by two XL Bully dogs in east London

The neighbour of a woman who was mauled to death by XL Bully dogs, says she never saw muzzled dogs anywhere on the estate. Aimee Marston said "We've never ever seen an XL Bully. If they were registered, we would have seen muzzled dogs but I've got two ex-racing greyhounds and we walk them all the time and we never ever see muzzled dogs on the estate." It is believed to be the first fatal attack by the breed since new registration laws came into force in February. Report by Kennedyl.
