Nice share thanks.
Excerpts from the Video.
According to ISPR representative.. Pakistani Experts are there COMSAT,NDMA voice detection team,some SUPARCO scientists with Infra red cams. are also there.Germans are there because they brought with then 30 meter look down into the snow equipment.(Thats why Germans are already there)Norwegian team on the way. 21 Heavy equipment plants,such as Bulldozers and Trucks are there..In the next 24 hours the Quantity will be doubled to 50 Heavy Machines on site.
PAF has been actively Participating all the way...Pre fabricated Accommodation has been transported there...Average temperature is -15 C.
The Site was Built there 20 years ago,and it was strategically places behind a large Hump and away from the general direction of slides from the Glacier..But this Avalanche Jumped the Hump,crossed the River and that was very unusual.
The biggest challenge is to point out the best location for digging as digging the whole site is not possible and will be time consuming...Sniffer dogs are not useful at the moment as they cant sniff under 70 to 100 feet of snow,but once we have dug deep enough the dogs will come handy.
Some heavy equipment was too big for the narrow roads in the area,so we had to dismantle them and then re assemble once on site.400 Army personnel and 60 civilians are participating in rescue operation.Local rescue teams reached the site within 2 hours.
At the time we are digging in 8 sites,and a few of them have been dug all the way to the Ground,but unfortunately we found nothing,as the Avalanche was very massive and has displaced Buildings...In this regards the Foreign teams are helping us in pinpointing the exact sites which have most possibility of finding the trapped personnel.
We are still treating this as a rescue operation,and hope we will find survivors although it will be a miracle.
We are committed to reach our comrades as soon as possible.
