Inside the video 

In the video shared by RESQ, we see that the team members of the NGO after climbing and walking through the narrow edges of the walls reach the brink of the tank. After finding a correct spot to venture inside the tank, one of the team members is seen wearing a rescue gear and getting inside the tank with the help of a lever-pully mechanism. This member, along with a net approaches the dog within the tank and tries to capture him. Even though the dog gets restless for a while, they manage to tame him and bring outside the tank, on the safe ground.
