MOUNT RINJANI, LOMBOK ISLAND, INDONESIA, JUN 21 – Rescue efforts were hindered by steep terrain, fog, and bad weather as Juliana Marins was trapped for over 14 hours before being found deceased, officials said.
- Indonesian rescuers conducted a search for 26-year-old Brazilian tourist Juliana Marins after she slipped and fell near the crater area of Mount Rinjani on Saturday morning.
