1993 incident


Six members of a seven-person hiking group led by Lyudmila Korovina died in mysterious circumstances in 1993.[6] Valentina Utochenko was the only survivor.[7] While it was reported that all the victims showed the symptoms of bleeding through their eyes and ears and frothing at the mouth, later autopsy examinations ignored these symptoms and claimed signs of hypothermia and protein deficiency in the deceased members of the hiking group as the cause of death.[8]
