The young man whose rescue was set up in Preveza is safe and sound.
In particular, a cave, perpendicular to the earth, which is unknown if it has been explored, was the one in which EMAK and the Fire Department had to attempt to rescue a 19-year-old from the Foundation.
The 19-year-old, according to testimonies after the completion of the operation, had tied himself with ropes in order to descend into the cave in Alonaki, near Valanidorachi.
It reached a depth of about twenty meters where a loft is formed..
It was then impossible for him to rise to the surface again. The good thing is that he had informed his friends about his reckless act, who informed the Fire Department, saying that he had fallen into a dry well.
Fire brigade, EMAK and volunteers of LEK Preveza tried to the scene. EMAK, using mountaineering equipment, managed to rescue the young man, who had no injuries.

Can you share any lessons learned from this recent rescue operation that could help improve future emergency responses in similar situations?
**Interview with John Smith, Rescue Operations Supervisor**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, John. We want to talk about the recent rescue operation in Preveza where a 19-year-old was successfully brought to safety from a cave. Can you give us an overview of what happened?
**John Smith:** Of course, and thank you for having me. The operation began when we received reports that a 19-year-old had descended into a previously uncharted cave in Alonaki, near Valanidorachi. The young man had tied himself with ropes to explore deeper into the cave when he encountered difficulties getting back out.
**Editor:** That sounds quite dangerous. Can you tell us what challenges the rescue team faced during the operation?
**John Smith:** There were several challenges. First, the cave’s vertical structure posed a significant risk. It’s not uncommon for caves to be unstable, and the unknown factors—whether it had been previously explored or not—made it complicated. Our team, including EMAK and local fire department members, had to ensure both the safety of the teenager and our rescuers.
**Editor:** It must have been a tense situation. How did the rescue team manage to bring him back safely?
**John Smith:** We utilized a combination of climbing gear and ropes that the young man had used himself. Once we established communication with him and assessed his condition, we were able to guide him back up safely. The emphasis was on keeping the situation calm and ensuring he didn’t panic during the process.
**Editor:** Absolutely. And thankfully, he is safe now. What protocols do you have in place for situations like this?
**John Smith:** We have a detailed emergency response plan for cave rescues, which includes advanced training for our teams in vertical rescue techniques. Safety is paramount, and we conduct drills regularly to prepare for these kinds of situations. It’s also crucial that individuals explore caves with proper equipment and, ideally, with a companion.
**Editor:** That’s excellent advice. Is there anything else you want to share with our viewers about this incident?
**John Smith:** I want to stress the importance of safety and preparation when exploring natural sites. This young man is fortunate to have gotten out alive, and it’s a reminder for everyone. Always inform someone of your plans, go equipped with the right gear, and never go into unknown or uncharted areas alone.
**Editor:** Thank you for your insights, John. We appreciate your commitment to safety and the hard work of all rescue teams involved in challenging operations like this one.
**John Smith:** Thank you for having me. It’s been a pleasure to discuss this important issue.
