NAGANO — Rescue teams comprising personnel from the Nagano and Gifu prefectural police, the Ground Self-Defense Force and fire departments resumed search-and-rescue operations on Mt. Ontake early Tuesday, but were forced to suspend efforts only 90 minutes later because of signs volcanic activity could intensify.
The GSDF initially planned to mobilize several CH-47 Chinook helicopters to accelerate efforts to reach climbers said to be in cardiopulmonary arrest, a standard description of victims whose apparent deaths have not been confirmed, who remain near the summit of the 3,067-meter-high volcano. But the GSDF decided not to deploy the large transport helicopters after rescue operations were suspended.
But the Japan Meteorological Agency observed volcanic tremors after 6:12 a.m. Tuesday, which measured around the same level as the one that occurred immediately after the eruption Saturday. Rescue operations were then suspended at 7:05 a.m with midsize helicopters remaining on standby as of 1 p.m. Japan News
