Landslide and Flooding Devastate Zermatt: Tourist Haven Isolated

jordskred - oversvømmelser - Zermatt

Massive thunderstorms in Switzerland wreak havoc on popular Zermatt, leaving it cut off and residents evacuated.

Zermatt, en populær turistdestination i den sydlige kanton Valais nær Matterhorn-bjerget, har været utilgængelig siden lørdag, den 22. juni. En massiv tordenstorm natten til fredag fik floder til at oversvømme gader og forårsage evakuering af flere dusin beboere. Tre personer er savnet, efter at kraftige tordenstorme og skybrud i det sydøstlige Schweiz forårsagede et jordskred. Nedbør i den schweiziske kanton Valais har forårsaget alvorlige oversvømmelser, isoleret Zermatt og forårsaget evakueringer, mens myndighederne hæver alarmniveauerne.
