Jan, 2022- In St. Petersburg, Russia, a tragic incident occurred where a 40-year-old mother was swept away in the frozen Oredezh River. Video
The woman, a mother of two, jumped into the river at night to mark the Orthodox Epiphany, a tradition where dipping in freezing water is believed to have healing properties. The incident, captured on video, showed her wearing a swimsuit and crossing her heart before leaping into the river.
Unfortunately, she was quickly dragged under the ice by a fast-moving current, despite a man, believed to be her husband, diving in after her. Rescue divers initiated a search, but the woman has not been found and is presumed to have drowned.
The head of the area’s rescue service criticized the location choice for the ice plunge, noting the river's danger and lack of rescuers or appropriate lighting.
