Ski HORROR as 30 Severely Injured in Spain Chair Lift Collapse as Dozens STILL Trapped
Ski lift accident leaves 30 injured skiers at Spanish resort in the Pyrenees BBC 20 JAN 2025 ![]() ![]() ![]() BARCELONA, Spain ? At least 30 people have been injured in a ski lift accident at the Spanish resort of Ast?n, in the Pyrenees mountain range, emergency services for Spains northern Aragon region said Saturday. Regional emergency services said that 10 people needed to be treated in hospitals, including two who were seriously injured. State TV channel TVE reported that around 80 people were trapped on the chairlifts in the immediate aftermath. It?s like a cable has come off, the chairs have bounced and people have been thrown off, one witness told TVE. Fernando Beltr?n, a representative of Spains government in Aragon, later posted on X that all the skiers affected by the accident have been evacuated and those who were injured were receiving medical treatment. The cause of the incident is unknown. Several helicopters were deployed to the area to rescue those trapped and transfer the injured to nearby hospitals. Social media images and video appeared to show a number of people lying on the snow beneath the ski lift. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro S?nchez said he was shocked by the news of the accident, expressing his closeness to the injured and their families. The ski resort said that it was working with emergency services and that its management expressed consternation and support for those affected by the incident. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5oIZN3sEPk |
