eKathimerini — An Italian hiker was found safe after getting lost in the Lefka Ori mountains of western Crete Thursday afternoon. A search and rescue operation was launched after the hiker called emergency services number 112 after realising that he lost his way.
After stopping overnight, the search resumed Friday morning and a few hours later the man was found in a gorge 300 meters away from the Anopolis area. He was found to be in good health and was taken to a safe location.
