Tourists stranded in the mountains of Karachay-Cherkessia have been evacuated.

Rescuers evacuated a group of tourists trapped in the mountains after a mudslide to Cherkessk.

As reported by "Kavkazsky Uzel," on November 4, a mudslide in the Urupsky District blocked the dirt road to the Yuzhnaya Cave. A group of tourists from Cherkessk—15 adults and six children—who had arrived in the village of Rozhkao by car were trapped on the side of the cave .

Today, rescuers from the Karachay-Cherkessia Search and Rescue Team of the Ministry of Emergency Situations arrived at the scene and evacuated people to Cherkessk, the Ministry of Emergency Situations for Karachay-Cherkessia reported on its Telegram channel. No further details regarding the tourists' evacuation were provided in the publication.

The evacuation of the seven vehicles in which the tourists arrived "will take place after the area is cleared of mudslides," Interfax reported today, citing a representative from the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
