Twelve individuals lose their lives due to carbon monoxide poisoning in a Georgian ski resort accident.
Officials discovered the bodies of 11 foreign nationals and one Georgian in a sleeping area situated above a restaurant. The ski resort, known for its popularity among skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts, has been shaken by this unfortunate event. Local authorities indicated that preliminary examinations did not show any signs of foul play, suggesting that a power outage led to the disaster. An oil-powered generator was activated after the facility lost electricity on Friday, with the bodies found on the second floor of a building hosting an Indian restaurant.
The investigation is ongoing, and the identity of the victims has yet to be disclosed. Gudauri, which sits at approximately 2,200 meters (7,200 feet) altitude in the picturesque Caucasus mountains, has roots tracing back to the 19th Century, originally serving as a trading post along the historic Georgian Military Road. Located about 120 kilometers (75 miles) north of Tbilisi, Georgia’s capital, Gudauri remains a key destination for winter sports enthusiasts of all skill levels, but the current tragedy marks a somber moment in its storied history.
