"Tragedy in Broad Peak continues!
After three bivouacs at 8000m, three Iranian climbers, Aidin Bozorgi, Pouya Keivan and Mojtaba Jarahi, reached the summit of Broad Peak on Tuesday morning (July 16th), but they haven't been able to return to C3 yet. As per last communication, they were at 7800m, needing food and water.
Unfortunately the rescue operations have not been successful so far and the three young Iranian climbers have not been seen. Regret to say that they don't appear to have been able to survive by now, although the rescue continues today."
