A total of 21 emergency medical teams were dispatched to the scene following the incident in the Baku Metro today, TABIB said in response to APA's inquiry.

Two individuals (female) — a 25-week pregnant woman and a 43-year-old person diagnosed with a right shoulder injury — were hospitalized at the Sabunchu Medical Center by emergency teams.

Nine people were provided with on-site medical assistance due to arterial hypertension and stress reactions.

Note that at around 12:10, a short circuit in an intermediate cable between the “Ulduz” and “Narimanov” stations of the Baku Metro caused a disruption in the supply of voltage to the contact network.

Since electricity is the main power source ensuring the movement of Baku Metro trains, the supply of high-voltage power was halted, and as a result, train movement on the “Ulduz–Narimanov” section was not possible.
