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 Transcript: Rescuer Discusses Successful Cave Operation in Preveza**
**Host:** Welcome back to our segment on local news stories that highlight incredible courage and rescues. Today, we have with us Mr. Nikos Papadopoulos, a member of the EMAK (National Emergency Aid Center) team that recently carried out a rescue operation in Preveza. Thank you for joining us, Nikos.
**Nikos Papadopoulos:** Thank you for having me.
**Host:** Let’s dive right in. Can you tell us about the situation with the 19-year-old who was trapped in the cave near Alonaki?
**Nikos:** Absolutely. The young man had descended into a cave that is quite steep and known for its unpredictability. He tied himself with ropes to ensure he could explore safely, but unfortunately, he found himself in a situation where he needed assistance to get back out.
**Host:** How did this rescue operation unfold?
**Nikos:** Once we received the call, we quickly mobilized our team along with the Fire Department. As we arrived on scene, we assessed the cave’s entrance and the surrounding area to map out the safest route for the rescue. Communication was key, and we worked closely with the young man to ensure he remained calm throughout the operation.
**Host:** Was the cave that the young man was in previously explored?
**Nikos:** To our knowledge, this particular cave hasn’t been fully explored before, which added to the complexity of the situation. We had to be very cautious, knowing that there could be unforeseen hazards inside.
**Host:** How did you feel when you finally reached him?
**Nikos:** I felt a great sense of relief. When we found him safe, it was a rewarding moment for all of us involved. His safety was our top priority, and seeing him unharmed was the best outcome we could have hoped for.
**Host:** That’s wonderful news! Considering this experience, what advice would you have for individuals who are thinking about exploring caves?
**Nikos:** Always prioritize safety. Never go alone, ensure you have the right equipment, and inform someone about your plans. It’s also important to research the location thoroughly before you go. Caving can be a thrilling adventure, but it carries risks that must be respected.
**Host:** Thank you for those valuable insights, Nikos. We’re glad to hear the young man is safe and grateful for the heroic work of EMAK and the Fire Department.
**Nikos:** Thank you for having me. We appreciate your support and hope this encourages safety in outdoor adventures.
