A European woman who was hiking in the mountainous area near\u00a0Wadi Showka in Ras Al Khaimah became stranded after she fell and injured her leg.<\/p>\n
Unable to walk, an emergency call was made to organise a rescue mission.<\/p>\n
The Air Ambulance Crews in the Air Wing Department at the General Directorate of Security Support at the Ministry of Interior were tasked with the rescue and faced some challenges.<\/p>\n
Where the injured tourist was located made it\u00a0impossible for\u00a0a rescue team to reach her by land and also for a\u00a0rescue aircraft to land.<\/p>\n
Due to these difficulties the Air Ambulance Crew\u00a0had to use a crane to rescue the woman.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
