Terrifying Incident: Children Trapped Mid-Air in Pakistan Cable Car Mishap

Eight children and two adults are trapped 1,200 feet in the air after a chairlift cable snapped in Pakistan's northwest. The children were on their way to school when the incident occurred. Rescue efforts are being conducted from the ground, but a helicopter is needed due to the height of the chairlift system. The country's disaster management authority has requested helicopter assistance, and the prime minister has ordered the closure of dilapidated and non-compliant chairlifts. Many children in remote areas rely on cable cars for transportation, which can be risky due to lack of maintenance.
