Earlier, the ISPR said that Pakistan army, since yesterday, is coordinating a high-risk rescue operation to evacuate stranded mountaineers Shehroze Kashif and Fazal Ali who are stuck at Nanga Parbat.
The Pakistan army’s media wing said that Pakistan army aviation helicopters and a ground search team comprising high altitude porters/rescuers are employed to rescue the mountaineers.
