Yeah they caught during the earthquake in taiwan Rescuers on Friday brought nine people to safety who had been stranded in a winding open cave system two days after Taiwan was hit by its biggest earthquake in 25 years. The 7.2 magnitude quake is believed to have killed at least 12 people, with more than 1,000 others injured. What's the latest from the quake zone? The nine people rescued had been trapped in the Tunnel of Nine Turns, a section of mountain trail and overhanging rock that is popular with walkers. "I could do nothing but kept praying," one woman who was rescued from the tunnel told reporters, according to Taiwan's SET News channel. She said the earthquake had sounded like "a bomb." Meanwhile, the death toll was expected to rise to 12 as rescue teams found two people who had been pinned beneath a pile of giant rocks. Officially the number of fatalities stands at 10 until the two are formally identified. www.dw.com/en/taiwan-rescuers-free-nine-trapped-in-open-cave-trail/a-68753533
