Chilean Miner Rescue

Live stream:



This is the longest underground entrapment in all of human history.

In at least one of miner's cases, the wife boycotted her husband's rescue when she found out his mistress was already at the site keeping vigil.

Over a month ago, the WSWS commented about the disaster, reminding us the trapped miners were and are victims of the ruthless drive for profit. Safety is secondary, if it is considered at all.

Update: All 33 miners are now out of the mine. There are about six rescuers left down there, and they will be up shortly.

Update II: Everyone is out of the mine now. This is the roster of those miners rescued today.
