How many people are inside?

Inside, I used to work as an operator in the center room. Other times there were four or five people. There should be 40-45 people at this time. When I was in the control room, I had to save everyone's lives. After such an accident, I did not run away alone. Everyone had to be saved. At that time, I told everyone that there was an accident at the dam. And made everyone run outside. My time was wasted doing that. In the end, I couldn't get out.

How many people are still stuck inside?

When talking with friends, only three or four people were around. There was a power house inside, are there people in that power house too? maybe All must not have escaped. The tunnel is long, the force of water must have taken it inside.
