In some places, rescue personnel have been forced to take longer routes over mountain ridges and cross steep, rugged terrain on foot.<\/p>\n<p>Damage to roads and bridges has further complicated search and rescue operations. Teams are continuing efforts to identify safe routes and reach areas that remain difficult to access.<\/p>\n<p>Modern technology is also being used to support the operation. Drones are conducting aerial surveys to assess conditions in the affected areas and help guide rescue teams.<\/p>\n<p>Images and data collected by drones are being used to identify blocked routes, evaluate landslide conditions and locate priority search areas, allowing rescue teams to plan their movements more effectively.<\/p>\n<p>Landslides and flooding have caused extensive damage to roads and other infrastructure around Gyirong.
