Marmolada collapse, second day of land searches

Land searches resumed in the area affected by the collapse of the Marmolada glacier, downstream of the flow, where about ten hikers were swept away by the avalanche on Sunday 3 July. At dawn, after a quick briefing, the helicopter took the operators up to inspect the lower part of the detachment where the safety conditions are greater and where ‘sentries’ and sirens would guarantee the possibility of escape in the event of new collapses. .

Yesterday the operators managed to identify and recover the tenth victim of the avalanche. The death toll is of six identified victims: three Venetians (Filippo Bari, Paolo Dani and Tommaso Carollo), a woman from Trentino (Liliana Bertoldi) and two tourists from the Czech Republic (Pavel Dana and Martin Ouda). Five people remain: the spouses Davide Miotti and Erica Campagnaro, the engaged Manuela Piran and Gianmarco Gallina, and the 22-year-old Nicolò Zavatta; it is not excluded that they are among the bodies already recovered by the rescuers and that therefore only one missing person is missing.
