Miner Asim Sehanovic, who was buried under the rubble in Mramor coal mine near Tuzla, was found dead on Tuesday.

The rescue operation lasted six days. Sehanovic was the first miner to enter the 170-meter-deep shaft on Friday, but a landslide occurred, and he was buried under the rubble.

Mining crews exerted superhuman efforts, working in three shifts and manually digging to recover the miner. Despite the challenging situation, they held onto hope that he might still survive until today.

A significant issue was the constant collapsing of the earth, which hindered their efforts.
