As noted, the incident occurred in the evening in the Onsky district.

According to preliminary information, on June 15, a company of relatives rested on the Onon River.

“At about 5 p.m. while swimming, the 15-year-old girl, having got into a whirlpool, began to sink. Adults rushed into the water to save the girl, ”they said in the UK.

They were joined by three fishermen who fished nearby. 

“The girl was saved, but four adults (a 45-year-old woman and three men aged 41, 58 and 64 years old) drowned,” the report said.

The bodies of three men were discovered, and a woman’s body is currently being searched. 

The Office organized a pre-investigation check.

Earlier in the Arkhangelsk region, two police officers were awarded, who saved a drowning teenager.
