Hiker falls 300 meters into an active volcano. Search teams find her alive but she keeps sliding further down the ravine

A Brazilian tourist who fell while hiking near the opening of an active volcano in Indonesia has been found dead after a difficult rescue operation that lasted several days. Juliana Marins, 26, was hiking Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island when she slipped and fell from a cliff on Saturday morning.

As per the BBC, Marins was climbing Indonesia’s second-tallest volcano with five friends and a tour guide at around 6:30 in the morning local time when the accident happened. The group was walking along a steep trail that goes around the volcano’s opening when she fell. One member of the group told Brazilian media that the ground was slippery, the climb was hard, and they could not see well because of bad weather.
