Avalanche traps about 150 Pakistani soldiers

[janon]

India offered IAF helicopters with pilots and personnel but the offer was denied, as pilots and personnel were going to come too which would get data of sites of Pakistan.

Well in that case what help can India provide this time? Maybe specialised equipment, if India has any handy.

Given low temperatures and the grave attendant risk of hypothermia, is it still a Search & Rescue operation, or has it been changed to a Recovery operation?

Normally survivors are found in first 10-30 minutes not after 20-40 hours it would be nothing short of miracle if the building structure survived and people were inside it may had oxygen tank

The search folks should just concentrate on the building structure where it would stand approximately and dig it out first as its location is pretty certain

Maybe India has some machinery or tools which our Army has notified our command center when they heard of this news...Surely IA must have heard or seen this tragedy before any one else.

India was engaged in search and rescue in Jan i think.... machinery would be still there.

It was still a Search and Rescue operation this morning.
Only miracles can save the men. With this cold temperate, the body must have been seriously effected.. Brain and heart could have even stopped. There could have been men in coma..

we should not offer any help..let them live in their own mess.
Their prob is not our prob

it depends on many circumstances...
the soldiers were fully insulated...and snow itself is a very good insulator..thats why eskimos lived in.igloos?
if soldiers are completely immersed in snow..they will die due to lack of oxygen..
but if even one of the buildings survived and an air picket was created...there are chances somebody will come out alive...

That is what they are doing, and digging out soft corners too.

Did we ask for it ? ... Did we accept it ?

If a building withstood, and is still upright, and people were together, still a search and rescue, although chances are slim.

Still to be on the optimistic side, search and rescue. Although there is a window of only 1 more day IMO if anybody is still alive.

Would need a miracle though.

They are soldiers man...have some respect even if they are our enemy !!

Give respect and earn respect...thats what real men do.

 

[deckingraj]

Lol, your saying that almost as if we were ever gonna ask for your help

Another moronic reply...If India's help is going to save even 1 of those chaps then Pak should eagerly ask for it...Your idiotic ego is not important then the precious lives out there...

I am pleased that right this minute any Indians and Pakistanis reading your post will be thinking what you are and sharing the same sentiments. Do you really feel the urge on a thread like this to drop the odd wink and attempt to troll? It wouldnt matter to me whether these soldiers were of Pakistani or Indian origin - i would want to simply do whatever we could to rescue them for the sake of humanity and their families.
I thank god that the likes of you are in a serious minority of just 1. You are a troll of the highest degree.
