In Japan, concerns intensify for a truck driver trapped for three days in a sinkhole near Tokyo. The 74-year-old driver became trapped when a road collapsed, swallowing his truck. Efforts to rescue him are hindered by the sinkhole's expansion and leaking water pipes nearby. Rescue workers are constructing a 30-meter ramp to access the cab, which is buried in debris. Local authorities have evacuated residents and warned millions to conserve water to minimize sewage leaks during the operation, which has been complicated by further erosion of the sinkhole walls.
Rescue efforts for the trapped truck driver continue as authorities face challenges due to the sinkhole's increasing size and ongoing water leaks complicating operations.
Fire chief Tetsuji Sato described the site as extremely dangerous, with ongoing erosion and groundwater leaks impeding rescue efforts for the 74-year-old driver trapped inside.
