Up to 30 people were feared to have died after an Italian mountain Hotel Rigopiano was engulfed by a powerful avalanche in the earthquake-ravaged centre of the country. Italy’s Civil Protection agency confirmed the Hotel Rigopiano had been engulfed by a two-metre (six-feet) high wall of snow and that emergency services were struggling to get ambulances and diggers to the site. / AFP PHOTO / CNSAS / ANDREAS SOLARO / RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE – MANDATORY CREDIT “AFP PHOTO /CNSAS” – NO MARKETING NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS – DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS ITALY-QUAKE-WEATHER

Equipa de resgate pediu a intervenção de helicópteros

Foram encontradas vivas, debaixo da neve, seis pessoas no hotel Rigopiano que ficou soterrado em Farindola, em Itália, na passada quinta-feira.

De acordo com o jornal italiano La Repubblica, os socorristas já as localizaram mas ainda não foram retiradas devido à temperatura que se faz sentir, o que torna a operação complicada. A equipa de resgate teve de pedir a intervenção de helicópteros dos bombeiros, que descolaram há pouco de Pescara com cobertores e outros materiais necessários para prestar auxílio.
