Buried Village - Belay that Elated News

I am not sure what's going on re the mud buried school in the Philippines.

I posted the previous joyous news after reading the Reuters Alert, which claimed the news was confirmed by an Interior Minsitry official! But switching to BBC I read on its 'Latest' that the US rescuers have denied such a rescue.

The only thing true is the Taiwanese team using a sonic detecting equipment for life, but rescuers aren't too sure whether the sounds heard were that of the earth moving. Digging continues! Let's hope.

UPDATE:
Reuters Alert now confirms the BBC report that no one has been rescued yet, contrary to Filipino Interior Ministry's announcement.
