Burkina Faso Miners stuck await rescue

It’s a race against time in Burkina Faso to save eight miners trapped inside a mine.

The operations started on the 21st of April after the Perkoa zinc mine was flooded.

The miners are thought to be at a depth of 700 metres.

The group includes six Burkinabe, one Zambian and one Tanzanian.

The families of the miners have already appealed for international help.
