Danger of Snow Avalanches. Rescuers Appeal to Residents of Two Regions.

Ukrainian rescuers warn about the danger of snow avalanches in the Ivano-Frankivsk and Transcarpathian regions. Specialists of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine reported this.

As a result of thawing in the mountains of the Ivano-Frankivsk and Transcarpathian regions, significant snow avalanche danger is expected. It will last from January 28 to January 29. The danger level will reach the third level.

Be careful when planning trips to the mountains. Remember about your own safety and the safety of others!

On January 6, an avalanche with a volume of 1280 cubic meters descended in the Carpathians. It was observed on the eastern slope of Mount Brezcul. The incident occurred between 15:00 and 16:00. This information was disclosed by representatives of the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center.

It is also important to note that in Romania, three Ukrainians who found themselves in the Maramureș Mountains called for help. They were exhausted, cooled due to wet clothing, and deprived of food. They were rescued thanks to the joint efforts of the rapid response group, border police, and rescuers. This was reported by the media.
