Nine people died after a cable car slumped on a mountain near Lake Maggiore in northern Italy on Sunday.
The accident occurred on a service carrying passengers from the resort town of Stresa up the nearby Mottarone mountain in the region of Piedmont.
Officials say two children, aged five and nine, were brought from the scene by helicopter to a Turin hospital.
They are the only survivors of 11 passengers who had been on board when the cable car crashed, a spokesman for Italy’s alpine rescue service confirmed to the Reuters news agency.
The cause of the incident remains unclear, but local reports suggest the cable carrying it may have failed about 300m (984ft) from the top of the mountain.
