This is the dramatic moment one of six children stuck in a cable car in Pakistan was winched to safety today.

Rescue teams are battling to reach six children and two adults stuck in a cable car in Pakistan.

The youngsters were traveling to school in the mountainous region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa when the chairlift's cable snapped some 900ft above the ground.

Pakistan's National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) said a helicopter was able to reach the location of the lift. However, reaching the youngsters in the lift is a more difficult operation.

Footage shows how one of the rescue team was lowered to the cable car and carefully removed a child.
