Men on a rubber boat were dragged under a barge on the Yenisei

In Krasnoyarsk, two men on a rubber boat were dragged under a cargo ship while walking along the Yenisei. The river trip could have ended tragically if rescuers had not come to their aid.

The incident occurred on Monday, July 6, in the Oktyabrsky Bridge area. At some point, the boat's engine stalled and it drifted under the barge. Krasnoyarsk residents were trapped and their lives were in real danger.

Specialists from KGKU "Spassatel" immediately went to the place, writes KrasnoyarskMedia news agency. They used a lifebuoy to rescue the injured from under the barge. The men were then taken to shore, where they were treated and handed over to their relatives.
