A man was found dead in a riverbed in the Maramureș Mountains, near a sheepfold, with signs of advanced decomposition.

The discovery was made by a shepherd who alerted the authorities. The man's body, which was in an advanced state of decomposition, suggests he may have died days or weeks ago. The area is known as a dangerous route for Ukrainians fleeing war, and the extreme conditions in the mountains have led to several tragedies in recent years, with bodies previously discovered in the same region.
