Hopes raised as voice heard from under the collapsed Bangkok high-rise
A female voice, human image, and knocking sounds were detected from a 3-meter deep cavity under the collapsed State Audit Office building in Bangkok, raising hopes for survivors.
Rescue teams, including earthquake experts, have halted heavy machinery use and are now digging by hand to reach potential survivors, fearing vibrations could endanger them.
Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt expressed belief in miracles, citing past rescues weeks after similar collapses, as 72 construction workers remain missing and are believed trapped.
