"The search for the girl's body has been halted." A new collapse occurred at the Lebyazhinsky quarry in Nizhny Tagil.
The search for the body of the 13-year-old girl who died on July 24 at the Lebyazhinsky quarry in Nizhny Tagil has been suspended due to a new major sand collapse. This was reported to the local television channel "Telekon" by the director of the city’s population protection center, Sergey Kopyorkin.
According to him, the collapse occurred directly at the work site, where specialists were washing sand from the bottom. As a result of the incident, expensive equipment was trapped under the rubble. The rescuers managed to move to a safe place, reports the portal v-tagile.ru.
"They felt that tremor when the shift begins. They quickly moved away, and right in that spot where they were, that block of sand went underwater.
And then, while they were rescuing the equipment — it’s expensive, worth millions — another collapse occurred. Some of the equipment remained under the sand," the television channel quotes Sergey Kopyorkin.
Rescuers warn about the dangers of being in the quarry area. The search operation has been suspended until a decision is made on further tactics.
