  • A paragliding accident on the Breithorn in Valais resulted in the deaths of two individuals. The incident occurred on Wednesday around 3 PM when the pair attempted a tandem flight from the summit.

  • The exact reasons for the accident remain unclear. During the takeoff, the paragliders slid several hundred meters into the depths. Bystanders witnessed the event and immediately notified the Valais cantonal rescue organization.

  • Following a search by Air Zermatt, both individuals were found dead. The formal identification of the victims was still underway as of Thursday afternoon, according to the cantonal police.

  • The Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland has initiated a routine investigation. Since paragliders are classified as aircraft, the incident is being examined under aviation law.
