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.

**Interview on the Recent Cave Rescue in Alonaki**
**Host:** Welcome to our show. Today, we’re discussing the recent successful rescue operation of a 19-year-old who found himself trapped in a cave in Alonaki, near Preveza. Joining us is a representative from the EMAK (Special Disaster Response Unit). Thank you for being here.
**EMAK Representative:** Thank you for having me.
**Host:** First of all, can you tell us what happened during the rescue operation?
**EMAK Representative:** Certainly. The operation was initiated after reports of the young man being trapped in a previously unexplored cave. He had tied himself with ropes to descend into a vertical shaft and became stuck. Our team, alongside the local Fire Department, quickly mobilized to assess the situation and formulate a rescue plan.
**Host:** How challenging was it to conduct this rescue given the cave’s unexplored status?
**EMAK Representative:** It presented significant challenges. The unfamiliarity of the cave’s layout meant that our teams had to proceed with caution. Safety was our top priority, both for the young man and our rescuers. We had to ensure that we were aware of potential risks, including falling debris or further collapses.
**Host:** What were some of the key strategies used during the rescue?
**EMAK Representative:** We employed a combination of rope rescue techniques and teamwork. Multiple teams were set up to manage different aspects of the operation, such as securing the cave’s entrance, assessing the best approach for extraction, and communicating effectively throughout the mission. The coordination among all involved was crucial.
**Host:** It’s heartening to hear that the young man is safe. What has been his reaction post-rescue?
**EMAK Representative:** The young man is understandably shaken but relieved to be out of danger. He expressed gratitude towards the rescue teams for their efforts. Support systems are in place to help him process this experience, as it can be traumatic.
**Host:** Thank you for providing these insights. It’s a reminder of the brave work that rescue teams do. Is there anything else you would like to add?
**EMAK Representative:** Just a message of caution to the public: while exploring natural formations like caves can be exciting, it’s essential to prioritize safety and inform others of your plans. Always go equipped with the necessary gear and ideally, travel in groups.
**Host:** Wise advice. Thank you once again for your time and for the vital work that you do.
**EMAK Representative:** Thank you for having me.
