Srinagar: Bodies of three persons, who were buried under an avalanche in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district a day ago, were recovered by a search and rescue team on Saturday, officials said.
Four people were aboard a snow removal machine on the Pahalgam-Aru road on Friday when they were trapped under the avalanche, an official had said.
“We’ve recovered the bodies of three persons who were buried under an avalanche…,” a police official said.
One person was rescued alive on Friday and had been admitted to a hospital, the official said.
Fresh snowfall has resulted in avalanches in hilly areas of Kashmir, prompting authorities to issue an advisory for people to avoid avalanche-prone areas. (PTI)
