QUETTA: Rescue teams continued their operation at a coal mine in Sorange, Quetta, on Friday after a deadly accident left dozens of miners trapped underground.
According to Balochistan PDMA Operations Manager Muhammad Fahad, the bodies of 34 miners have so far been recovered, while efforts are underway to retrieve the bodies of two more workers still trapped inside the mine.
