Mahandri
Then VS Now.

- A highly commendable initiative in Mansehra, Mahandri, where people from the Kaghan Valley and Naran have started cooking food on the roads for tourists stranded due to the bridge collapse between Balakot and Naran. On one hand, they are feeding the tourists, and on the other hand, they have opened their homes to provide shelter. This effort is truly praiseworthy and deserves all the appreciation it can get.

The Naran Hotel Association has made a generous announcement for tourists stranded due to heavy rain, offering free accommodation and a 50% discount on all food items at participating hotels. This initiative aims to provide relief to those affected by the floods, and travelers are advised to contact hotels directly to confirm availability and participation.

The Mahandri Bridge has collapsed due to rain flooding, blocking traffic between Balakot and Kaghan Naran and vice versa, with tourists advised not to travel to the area for the next 5 days. The collapse has resulted in significant disruptions, and a new bridge is expected to take 5-6 days to build. Travelers are urged to exercise caution and consider alternative routes, such as detours through nearby towns or cities, to avoid the affected area. It's essential to stay informed about the latest updates on the bridge reconstruction and travel advisories before planning a trip, and local authorities and news sources should be consulted for the most up-to-date information.

*BREAKING: Samina Baig Evacuated from K2 Base Camp after Falling Ill*

Islamabad, June 7, 2024 - Renowned mountaineer Samina Baig, who was attempting to summit K2, was successfully evacuated from the base camp to CMH Hospital in Skardu after falling ill during her acclimatization process.

According to sources, Baig was transported on horseback for 48 hours, battling harsh weather conditions and a deteriorating health condition, before reaching Askoli, the last village in the Skardu Shiger Valley. From there, she was transferred to a jeep and taken to Skardu by road.

The Pakistan Army played a crucial role in the evacuation, with army personnel from FCNA arranging an airlift from the nearby village of Dasu. A team of army and AKUH medical professionals are currently assessing Baig's condition at CMH Hospital, with an army air ambulance on standby in Rawalpindi, ready to transport her to Islamabad if necessary.

The evacuation effort was a collaborative effort, with the GB government and community leadership also providing support. Baig's condition is being closely monitored, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

Stay tuned for further developments on this story.

Samina Baig, Pakistan’s first female mountaineer, was leading a Pakistani-Italian joint female expedition team on K2. Unfortunately, during her pre-expedition acclimatization process, she fell seriously ill and developed severe breathing problems. We waited for helicopter evacuation for three days, but despite completing all the requirements for evacuation Askari Aviation (the only service provider available in Pakistan)could not carry out rescue operations citing weather conditions as excuse.

The representatives and doctor informed us that her condition is deteriorating, so we decided to evacuate Samina with human assistance and using a horse. The team plans to reach Askoli village in two days, walking day and night.

We need your prayers as the situation is critical.

Samina is the only Pakistani female who has climbed and hoisted the green flag on Mount Everest, K2, Nanga Parbat, and the Seven Summits on seven continents.
