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 with First Responder on Recent Cave Rescue in Preveza**
*Host:* Welcome to our special segment on local news. Today, we have with us Chief Alexios Papadopoulos from the Preveza Fire Department, who was involved in the recent rescue operation of a 19-year-old who became trapped in a cave near Alonaki. Thank you for joining us, Chief Papadopoulos.
*Chief Papadopoulos:* Thank you for having me. It’s a pleasure to share details about this operation.
*Host:* Let’s start with the incident itself. Can you describe how your team was alerted to the situation?
*Chief Papadopoulos:* We received a call early in the morning reporting that a young man had tied himself with ropes to descend into an uncharted cave. His companions became concerned when he didn’t return, which prompted them to alert us.
*Host:* That must have been quite alarming. What challenges did your team face during the rescue?
*Chief Papadopoulos:* The cave’s perpendicular orientation posed significant challenges for our team. We had to carefully assess the geological structure to ensure safety while planning the descent. Additionally, the fact that the cave was not previously explored made the operation more complicated. We worked closely with EMAK, the specialized rescue unit, to execute a coordinated approach.
*Host:* We’re glad to hear he’s safe. What was the condition of the young man when you found him?
*Chief Papadopoulos:* Fortunately, he was safe and sound, albeit shaken. Our primary concern was to ensure he was physically unharmed and to provide him with psychological support following the ordeal.
*Host:* In situations like this, what advice would you give to young adventurers who may be exploring similar areas?
*Chief Papadopoulos:* It’s crucial to have safety measures in place—always inform someone about your plans, wear proper gear, and avoid venturing into unknown areas alone. Exploring can be rewarding, but safety should always be the priority.
*Host:* Thank you for those important insights, Chief Papadopoulos. Any final thoughts you wish to share?
*Chief Papadopoulos:* I’d like to express gratitude to my team and the volunteers who contributed to the rescue. It’s a reminder of the importance of community in ensuring everyone’s safety in outdoor adventures.
*Host:* Thank you again for your time and for the work you and your team do. We’re glad to hear that the young man is safe.
*Chief Papadopoulos:* Thank you. It’s our duty, and we’re always prepared to help.
*Host:* And that’s it for today’s segment. Stay safe out there!
