The search for three members of a family who drowned in the Charvak Reservoir on September 2 has concluded. Today, divers from the Ministry of Emergency Situations (MES) recovered the body of the father. Earlier, rescuers had found the bodies of both sons.
The information was confirmed by the MES press service. Recall that the tragedy occurred on September 2 during a family boat trip. One of the men decided to swim in an unauthorized area and entered the water without a life jacket. When he began to drown, his father and older brother rushed to help him. As a result, all three drowned.
The body of the younger son was discovered first on September 9. The next day, September 10, the body of his older brother was found. At 13:35, MES divers recovered the body of the last victim. Thus, the search operation has been completed.
Additional forces and resources from the emergency departments of Jizzakh and Syrdarya regions, as well as modern search equipment, were involved in the search. Despite the large area and significant depth of the reservoir, rescuers managed to find all three victims.
The MES once again urged citizens to observe safety rules on water bodies and to use life jackets when riding on watercraft.
