32 miners trapped by an underground flood, have been rescued from a coal tunnel collapse in China.
34 people were in the tunnel, but rescuers say there is now little chance of finding the others.
One man died and another is still missing after the flood hit the colliery in Henan province.
The mine had been operating illegally and the owner has been detained.
In the eastern Chinese city of Hangzhou, where seven people died after a half-built subway tunnel collapsed on Saturday, rescuers hold little hope of finding alive the people still missing.
