According to the head of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Babol, the lives of the baby and its mother were in danger because the baby did not cry at birth and the placenta had not yet come out.
The mother and baby were then transferred to hospital after paramedics managed to reach them with great difficulty, and with the help of vehicles from the Road Maintenance and Transport Organization and the Iranian Red Crescent Society.
The village of Jajan is located in the heart of the Hyrcanian forest in the Babol Kenar District of Babol County, about 220 kilometers northeast of the capital Tehran.
