Two Russian climbers evacuated from Baichechekey peak in Kyrgyzstan

Two Russian climbers were evacuated from the Baichechekey peak in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. This was announced on August 21 by a source of Izvestia.

It is noted that they are currently in the hospital of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, where they receive the necessary medical care.

Victory Peak is located 500 km from this place, where Natalia Nagovitsyna, another Russian climber, was previously stuck.

The fact that 47-year-old Nagovitsyna was stuck at Victory Peak was reported on August 19 in the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Kyrgyzstan. She broke her leg during the descent and has been at altitude for a week. It was noted that the woman's partner gave her first aid and went for help.

On the same day, the Ministry of Defense of the Republic reported that a group of rescuers had been sent to the woman's location. The team consists of four people. It will take her three days to reach it, and the same amount of time to return, but weather conditions may make it difficult for them to travel.

On August 20, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, announced that the ministry had established close contact with the embassy in Bishkek to rescue the climber.
