A state of alert was raised on Monday afternoon by the authorities in the area of Navagi in Zakynthos, after a man fell from a height of about 10 meters, under circumstances that so far remain unclear.
Fire brigade forces immediately rushed to the site to organise a rescue operation, as access to the area is particularly difficult and demanding.
First information indicates that the man remains conscious, while efforts are underway to reach him safely and transport him to receive the necessary medical treatment.
The Region of the Ionian Islands is expected to contribute to the operation by providing a drone with a thermal camera to facilitate searches and identification in the rugged terrain, especially as the sun sets and visibility in the area decreases.
At this time, no further information has been released regarding the man’s identity or the exact cause of the incident.
