It consisted of a pregnant lady and a 15 year old boy under post-operative recovery. The horrible weather led to a road obstructing landslide at the Nastachung Pass in Kupwara District of Jammu and Kashmir.
During 7:30 PM on Thursday, the ambulance was stranded with no way to escape.
The ambulance had no way to move to Chowkibal or return to Tangdhar. It was blocked on either side due to landslide.
Since the ambulance had patients, the dangerously low temperatures were making it risky to their very lives.
However, due to the quick reaction of the Army Rescue Team, the patients escaped the fatality.
The team reached there quickly and they personally cleared the way for the ambulance so it can return back to Tangdhar.
That is not all, the army also provided the patients with medical relief.
