A tunnel collapse at a hydropower project in India has killed 10 people, while 17 others remain missing, according to Al Jazeera Latest.

Rescue teams have been working to reach the trapped workers, but hazardous conditions inside the tunnel have made the effort difficult. The collapsed section has left responders facing dangerous conditions as they try to locate the missing people and recover those confirmed dead.

The report, drawn from a monitored public feed, says the rescue operation continues amid the risks inside the tunnel. No further details were included in the feed summary about the cause of the collapse, the location of the project, or the identities of those involved.

The incident adds to concerns about safety at large infrastructure and energy projects, where workers can be exposed to serious risks during construction and excavation. At this stage, the confirmed toll stands at 10 dead, with 17 still unaccounted for.
