After the tragic death the train carried on to Balashov station in Saratov where ambulances met the vehicle. The children who first reported symptoms were taken in for treatment first, followed by the rest of the sprogs and the accompanying adults. <\/p>\n
Health watchdog Rospotrebnadzor said the incident has been brought under "special control". A 24-hour hotline has also been set up so parents can check in on their children.<\/p>\n
The children had been at the Olympic Rebyachka camp in western Siberia, prompting doctors to check in on the children still staying there. A criminal investigation has been opened following the incident.<\/p>\n
