There was an avalanche in the region! There is no news from 8 climbers, search and rescue teams are active

According to the Press Trust of India (PTI) agency, the mountaineer group set out for a 3-day climb in the Kedartal region, located within the borders of the state of Uttarakhand, on October 27.

NO NEWS CAN BE RECEIVED AFTER THE AVALANCHE

While an avalanche occurred on October 29 during the heavy snowfall in the region, 7 people and a guide in the Himalayan region could not be heard from.

Authorities shared the information that a search and rescue team of 10 people was dispatched to the region to reach the team with whom communication had been lost since October 29.

Officials pointed out that heavy snowfall in the Himalayan mountains, low visibility and avalanches made search and rescue efforts difficult, and emphasized that search and rescue teams found a tent, clothes, slippers and food items buried under the snow near the Kedartal region in the Uttarkashi district, but the missing people could not be reached during the search in a 2-3 kilometer area.
