/ world today news/ Spas Pandurski, one of the rescuers in the “Oranovo” mine, told “Telegraf” about the horror he experienced. “My hands were shaking as I cleaned their faces, then their shoulders, arms and legs,” shared Pandurski.
He is one of the three rescuers who were the last to take part in digging up the bodies of Ivan Lazarov and Nikolay Mihailov. “Terrible tragedy, I was friends with both of them. Above them we removed tons of mud and clay… I don’t want to talk anymore,” the man told “Telegraph” through tears. The other colleagues and friends of the dead have no strength to speak. Yesterday around 9 o’clock the last hope that the two miners could be found alive was extinguished. Their bodies were found under tons of mud, and it was later revealed that the men most likely died immediately after collapsing in the mine.
Three days before the tragedy in the mine on July 16, 42-year-old Nikolay Mihailov donated a fountain to his native village of Brestovo for the Ilinden holiday. He is an orphan, he has only one sister – Margarita, who works as a nurse at the Emergency Center in Blagoevgrad.
The other person who died, 35-year-old Ivan, is a bachelor. “He was a jolly man, one of the main organizers of the Kuker carnivals in Simitli,” say his fellow villagers. Yesterday, the two men were buried in their native village of Krupnik.
