On February 20 in Sochi, Russia, a 22-year-old woman endured a harrowing ordeal when she fell into a basement and spent three days trapped between the walls of a four-story building.

Fortunately, a local resident eventually heard the girl's cries for help, prompting the arrival of rescuers.

In a race against time, emergency services had to carefully dismantle part of the brickwork to free the young Russian woman.

Following the successful evacuation, she was promptly handed over to medical professionals.

The Russian Emergency Situations Ministry issued a statement saying: "A 22-year-old girl spent three days in a dungeon. It all happened in a four-storey building in Sochi.

"A local resident heard a woman’s cries for help behind the wall and went down to the basement of the house.

"As it turned out, the victim fell from the attic and ended up between two walls in the house.

"To get to her, employees of the Southern Regional Search and Rescue Team of the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry had to dismantle part of the brickwork. Rescuers handed the girl over to doctors."
