Italian fire brigade Vigili del Fuoco announced that mountaineers were stranded in Lago di Valsoera, north of the city of Turin. The firefighters, who descended with a rope from the fire helicopter that was transferred to the region, pulled the mountaineers safely to the helicopter from where they were at 3 thousand meters. Vigili del Fuoco described the operation as “a race against time and gusts of wind”.
