Baku / 19.02.18 / Turan: A heavy snowfall in the high mountainous area of the Greater Caucasus caused a snow avalanche that blocked traffic on the high-mountain road Guba-Khynalyg last night. As a result, the transport communication with a number of high-altitude villages in this zone has been discontinued, as the local executive power told Turan.
According to the same source, the snow avalanche descended to the 35-37-km segment of the road, and in this place the height of the snow cover reaches 4-5 meters. Special equipment is used to clear the road. According to preliminary data, there are no victims.
Last night, heavy snow fell in the Gusar and Khyzy districts.
