8月13日,当地志愿者救援队在Broad Peak山上成功追回了巴基斯坦登山者索海尔·萨基的遗体[1]。这具遗体是在7月30日造成10人丧生的雪崩事故后被发现的[1]。截至目前,救援人员已从这场灾难中追回8具遗体[1]。
这场雪崩是巴基斯坦近年来最严重的登山事故之一[1]。遇难者来自尼泊尔、阿曼、巴基斯坦、中国、英国和美国等多个国家[1]。Broad Peak是位于喀喇昆仑山脉的世界第12高山峰,海拔8051米[1]。此次远征队由著名登山家尼玛尔·普尔贾领导[1]。两天前,伊斯兰堡举行了烛光悼念仪式,以悼念遇难者[1]。
The body of Sohail Sakhi, a Pakistani climber, has been recovered by local volunteer rescue teams nearly two weeks after a devastating avalanche on Broad Peak [1]. The avalanche occurred on July 30, claiming the lives of ten mountaineers in one of Pakistan's deadliest climbing disasters in recent years [1]. So far, eight bodies have been retrieved from the site [1].
Sakhi was part of an expedition led by renowned mountaineer Nirmal Purja on Broad Peak, which stands at 8,051 meters (26,414 feet) and ranks as the world's 12th highest mountain [1]. The expedition team comprised climbers from Nepal, Oman, Pakistan, China, the United Kingdom, and the United States [1]. A candlelight memorial service was held in Islamabad to honor those lost in the accident [1].
