Miracles do happen in real life and the latest example to prove it is the rescue of a soldier alive who was buried for 6 days under 25 feet of snow after the Siachen Avalanche. 10 Indian soldiers went missing after an avalanche hit an Indian post at 19000 feet in the Northern Siachen.
The condition of the soldier is critical but it has definitely given some hope to the rescue teams who are searching for them day and night in the harsh weather conditions.
The soldier who has been rescued is Lance Naik Hanamanthappa Koppad hailing from Dharwad Dist, Karnataka and it was unbelievable for the rescuers to find a man alive who had been buried under 25 feet for 6 days at a temperature of -45 degrees.
He was attended by a medical team in a warm tent immediately and will be shifted to hospital on Tuesday. An official associated with the rescue operation told, “We are trying our best to evacuate him as soon as possible to RnR hospital”.
Till now four bodies have been recovered by the rescue team.
