In the mountains of Sochi, rescuers worked out the evacuation of people from the cable car

In the mountain shelter "Psehako" in Sochi, an all-Russian staff training was held to evacuate conditionally injured people from the cable car. Participants of the exercises practiced actions in the event of an emergency situation at height.

According to the Kuban-SPAS service, Krasnopolyansk and Adler detachments, as well as the search and rescue formation of the PIMC of the Gazprom Mountain and Tourism Center, participated in the training.

During the exercises, the specialists worked out the procedure for action after receiving a signal about the incident, the interaction of ground rescue groups with the personnel of the cable car, the organization of insurance and the descent of people from a height.

Such trainings allow to work out the coordination of actions of different units and check the readiness of specialists to respond to incidents on cable cars.

For the Sochi mountain cluster, such events are of particular importance. Cable cars in the resort are used to transport tourists, including in areas with difficult terrain, where evacuation requires special equipment and trained rescuers.

Earlier it was reported that rescuers pulled a woman and a dog from a pit at a construction site in Sochi.
