BEIJING, Jan. 22 (Xinhuanet) -- Three hikers -- two dutch and one British -- have been rescued in Turkey, after going missing for eight days on a hike. They were found at a mountainside near Antalya by the Turkish army. The three young people are exchange students, studying in Istanbul.
After a sudden weather change, they lost their direction and were trapped in the mountains. Carrying food supplies for only one day, they had to survive by eating bugs and found shelter at night in caves.
Luckily, they finally got through to an emergency call with a cellphone, and were spotted by the helicopter of Turkish army.
