In Romania, a Ukrainian draft dodger fell into a 400-meter ravine: saved from death by a cat
A 28-year-old Ukrainian from Ukraine, who fell into a deep ravine in the Maramureș Mountains in Romania, was rescued by rescuers and border guards after nearly five and a half hours of intense work. According to rescuers, the cat the man took with him saved his life.
Romanian rescuers together with border guards managed to retrieve from a 400-meter-deep ravine with a steep slope in the Eastern Carpathians a Ukrainian citizen with a kitten. This was reported by the portal spotmedia.
The rescue operation, complicated by deep snow, blizzard, and cold, lasted 5 and a half hours.
Local authorities reported that the man is 28 years old and from Kharkiv. A kitten was with him, which is believed to have helped him survive.
The victim spent more than a day in the snow at the bottom of the ravine, warming up with the animal’s heat until Romanian border guards found him.
It is reported that the young man rescued from the ravine is part of a group of three Ukrainians crossing the border into Romania. The other two were found with the help of a helicopter.
