Wayanad landslide children were rescued alive: There is devastation all around due to the landslide after heavy rains in Wayanad, Kerala. Meanwhile, some pictures have emerged which are no less than a miracle. In a daring rescue operation, Kerala Forest Department officials successfully rescued children and families trapped in the forest and debris despite the landslide and bad weather conditions.
A team led by Kalpetta Range Officer Ashik heroically rescued a family, including children, who were stranded without food and water near Attamala in Wayanad.
The team spent nearly four hours traversing rugged terrain using ropes to reach the stranded families. The children were carefully brought back safely from the steep and slippery hills. Adverse weather conditions, including heavy rains, further complicated the rescue operation.
But despite all the challenges, this was made possible. The children coming out safely is no less than a miracle. The children are very scared and frightened. These days were no less than a trauma for them.
