The bodies of two climbers who went missing in 1992 have finally been found. They were discovered on a glacier in the Swiss Alps.
For more than 30 years, their families did not know what happened to them. The ice on the glacier has been melting quickly because the weather is getting warmer. As the ice pulled back, it revealed the remains that had been hidden for all this time.
This is not the first time this has happened. As glaciers around the world shrink due to warmer temperatures, they often uncover items or people that were trapped in the ice many years ago.
Local authorities are working to confirm the identities of the climbers and bring closure to their families after such a long wait. The discovery serves as a sad reminder of how dangerous high-altitude climbing can be and how much the environment is changing.
