By Marina Romanovskaya: A film crew of one of the TV channels from Oslo, that includes three journalists and an interpreter, is making a trip on the Dnieper these days. The Dnieper is part of a large water route, that the journalists are taking for making their documentary.
Yesterday, the crew ran aground in Dubrovno District, Vitebsk Region. The captain did not take into account the strong current. The yacht was rescued by Belarusian rescuers and divers of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. The operation was successful and the Scandinavian seafarers continued their journey.
Rescue workers of the Belarusian Water Rescue Society OSVOD accompanied the Norwegians for a few more kilometers along the Dnieper to help them get through a couple of other difficult spots. The creative expedition of the film crew will last more than a month. Turkey will be the finishing point of the journey. The results of the big trip will be summed up in a documentary that will be broadcast by Norwegian television.
