8 days later children rescued from rubble
Amazing…
**ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) – Eight days after a powerful earthquake shook South Asia, Pakistani soldiers recovered four children – including two babies, one only 7 months old – from the rubble of their remote home in hard-hit Balakot. **
The bodies of their parents were also recovered in the mountain-top home on Sunday, army spokesman Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan told CNN.
The soldiers, on rescue and relief operations in the region, heard the children’s voices and started digging through the toppled house.
On Saturday, authorities rescued a 10-year-old girl from a house in Pakistani-controlled Kashmir, which was also hard hit by a 7.6-magnitude earthquake that killed thousands and left millions homeless.
