Pakistan cable car rescue under way for eight people trapped

Sure, here is a description of the Pakistan cable car rescue:

On Tuesday, August 22, 2023, a cable car carrying eight people, including six children, snapped and became stranded 275 meters (about 900 feet) above a ravine in the northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. The people on board were on their way to school when the accident happened.

The rescue operation was complicated by the fact that the cable car was hanging precariously over the ravine and the weather conditions were windy. Pakistani military helicopters were dispatched to the scene and were able to rescue four of the people on board. However, the rescue operation was suspended for several hours at night due to the darkness and the wind.

The rescue operation resumed the next morning and the remaining four people were successfully rescued. All eight people were unharmed.

The cause of the cable car accident is still under investigation. However, officials have said that it is likely that the accident was caused by a technical fault.

The rescue operation was a major success and it is a relief that all eight people were rescued unharmed. The Pakistani military and rescue teams deserve praise for their efforts.

Here are some additional details about the rescue operation:

The rescue operation involved more than 100 people, including military personnel, rescue workers, and local volunteers.
The military helicopters used in the rescue operation were equipped with winches and hoists that were used to lower rescuers down to the cable car.
The rescue operation was also assisted by zip lines that were used to transport people to safety.
The rescue operation took more than 14 hours to complete.
