If they’re shooting at us, they must be alive

Unreal. I’d normally think this is a hoax, but the BBC is rarely hoaxed. Not never, but rarely.

An Indian helicopter dropping food and water over the remote Andaman and Nicobar Islands has been attacked by tribesmen using bows and arrows.

There were fears that the endangered tribal groups had been wiped out when massive waves struck their islands.

But the authorities say the attack is a sign that they have survived.

Well that last part is fairly obvious, don’t you think?
