A rescue operation was carried out by the Pakistan Army via helicopter for foreign mountaineers, assisting climbers from the Netherlands, Singapore, and Ecuador.
According to the Pakistan Army, the climbers were rescued due to health issues encountered during their expedition. The mountaineers expressed their gratitude to the Pakistan Army for the timely rescue that saved their lives.
The climbers thanked the Pakistan Army, stating that they fell ill while attempting to summit K2 due to adverse weather conditions. They received medical assistance thanks to the prompt action of the army personnel, for which they are deeply grateful.
It is worth mentioning that in January this year, Pakistan Army volunteers also saved a French mountaineer stranded on a Himalayan peak.
