Taiwan Railways Administration issued a separate statement saying “many” were without signs of life, citing the local fire department.
A packed train derailed inside a tunnel in eastern Taiwan on April 2 with authorities confirming at least four passengers appeared to be dead when rescuers arrived. “Around four people are without life signs,” the Central Emergency Operation Centre said in a statement, adding rescuers were trying to get to four carriages inside the tunnel that were badly damaged and difficult to access. A brief video released by the centre inside the tunnel showed rescuers arriving on the scene and one twisted carriage door.More Related News
