In the Bostanlyk district of Tashkent region, rescuers pulled a car from a canal after the driver failed to follow basic safety rules.

According to the press service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the incident occurred on June 14 at 7:43 p.m. The regional emergency department received a report that a Captiva car had fallen into the Karankul canal, which flows through the territory of the mahalla of the same name.

Rescuers promptly arrived at the scene and, using special equipment, extracted the vehicle from the water.
