Italy is mourning the seven confirmed
victims of the Marmolada glacier collapse and the many more
feared dead, Premier Mario Darghi said at the site Monday.
"Today Italy mourns these victims and all the Italians are
brought together in affection," he said.
Visibly emotional, he said "this is a drama that certainly has
unforeseen elements, but certainly also depends on the
deterioraton of the environment and the climate situation.
"The government must reflect on what has happened and take
measures so that what happened has a low probability of
happening (again) and, indeed, will be averted.
"Now we must take measures so that what happened on the Marmolas
does not happen again in Italy," he said at the Dolomites resort
town of Canazei.
