00:00Four children have been rescued from a cable car dangling over a ravine in a remote mountainous

00:05area of Pakistan. Others, however, are still trapped. The group was headed to school on

00:09Tuesday around 7 a.m. local time when one of the cables snapped, leaving it dangling by one cable

00:14900 feet above the ground. On board were two adults and six children between the ages of 10

00:19and 16 years old. One of them reportedly has a heart condition and was unconscious for several

00:24hours. Pakistan's military has successfully rescued four of the children, but efforts are

00:29still underway for those remaining. Multiple helicopters have taken part in these rescue

00:33attempts but have been unsuccessful. The mission is especially precarious due to the gusty winds

00:38and concerns that the helicopter's blades could further destabilize the lift. The cable car is

00:42one of the main modes of transport between the village and local school due to the mountainous

00:46terrain. This is still an ongoing rescue, but we will periodically include updates in the comments.
