A cave-in at a Ukrainian coal mine killed one miner, injured several others and left seven miners trapped more than a half-mile below the surface, the Soviet news agency Tass reported Saturday.

Rescuers worked several hours to drill holes to reach the trapped miners after Friday’s accident at the Lenin coal mine near Gorlovka, Tass said.
