India, Sept. 5 -- A 60-year-old woman was rescued alive from the top floor of a four-storey house after being trapped under mud and debris for 10 days following devastating flash floods in Nepal's Nuwakot district, officials said.

The woman, identified as Chandika Shrestha, was rescued from her house in Bidur town by a nine-member Armed Police Force (APF) team.

A video shared by Nepal Police on social media showed rescuers digging through mud and sludge before pulling Shrestha out through a window on the top floor.

Shrestha was found unconscious. The video showed her slowly regaining consciousness as rescuers covered her with a blanket and jacket.

Following the rescue, she was flown by helicopter to the Nepali Army's Maithili Barracks...
