The bodies of four people who died in an avalanche in Greece were discovered Friday after an intense search operation, state television ERT reported.
Rescue services had been looking for three hikers, men between 30 and 35, who went missing on Thursday in the Vardousia mountains in central Greece.
A woman in her mid-30s, who had not been reported missing, was found dead with the others, ERT said.
Greek police were not available for confirmation.
Rescue services, using drones and trained dogs, discovered the bodies shortly after finding traces of their footsteps in the area popular with hikers and mountaineers, ERT said.
The large search operation was hampered by low temperatures and limited visibility, local authorities told media.
