印度特伦甘纳邦两艘救援船倾覆：11名救援人员被洪水冲走后全部获救
印度南部特伦甘纳邦（Telangana）Khammam 县 Sathupalli 地区的 Bethupalli 蓄水池连日强降雨后水位暴涨，多名渔民受困水中。11月4日晚，邦灾害响应部队（SDRF）与消防部门人员乘两艘船前往救援，途中两船相撞倾覆，船上11名救援人员被湍急的水流冲走，一度失踪。
据获救人员讲述，两船相撞倾覆后，他们被水流冲出约半公里，靠抓住树木等待救援。搜救连夜展开，国家灾害响应部队（NDRF）等力量赶赴现场：5名失踪人员于周三深夜获救，其余人员于周四（11月5日）清晨被带上岸，11人全部生还；受困渔民也一并获救。
特伦甘纳邦税收部长 Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy 证实11名救援人员已全部获救，并肯定连夜参与行动的救援队伍。事发后，邦首席部长 Revanth Reddy 指示 Khammam 县行政与警方负责人现场协调搜救。
此次强降雨与气旋「Murasu」有关，该气旋已于周二在安得拉邦（Andhra Pradesh）海岸登陆。Khammam 一带周三遭强风暴雨吹袭，多处道路中断、低洼地区被淹，初步估计约1.5万英亩的水稻、棉花、玉米与辣椒作物受损。
All 11 Rescue Personnel Rescued After Two Boats Capsize in Flooded Lake in India's Telangana
In Khammam district of Telangana in southern India, the Bethupalli tank in the Sathupalli area overflowed after heavy rain, trapping fishermen in the water. On the evening of November 4, personnel from the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) and the Fire Services set out in two boats to rescue them when the boats collided and overturned, sweeping all 11 rescue personnel away in the strong current.
One of the rescued personnel said the two boats overturned after a collision and they were washed about half a kilometre downstream, managing to hold on to trees until help arrived. The search ran through the night, with National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams joining the operation: five of the missing personnel were rescued late on Wednesday night and the rest were brought to shore early on Thursday, November 5. All 11 survived, and the trapped fishermen were also rescued.
Telangana Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy confirmed that all 11 personnel had been rescued and praised the teams that worked through the night. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy had directed district and police officials in Khammam to coordinate the operation on site.
The heavy rain was brought by Cyclone Murasu, which crossed the Andhra Pradesh coast on Tuesday. Gusty winds and rain lashed the Khammam area on Wednesday, snapping road links and inundating low-lying areas; preliminary estimates put damage to paddy, cotton, maize and chilli crops at about 15,000 acres.
