The Blatt Swiss village was partially destroyed after a huge piece of glacier crashed into the valley.
Despite the fact that the village was evacuated a few days ago because of the fears that the birch glacier broke up, one person was missing, and many houses were completely smoothed.
Local authorities describe the situation as “very bad” and asked for support in the Swiss Army disaster. Members of the Swiss government go to the scene.
300 villagers were to leave their homes on May 19 after geologists who monitored the territory warned that the glacier looked unstable. Now many of them will never be able to return.
The disaster that attacked the blat is the worst nightmare for the Alps communities.
The climate change causes glaciers – frozen ice rivers – to melt out faster and faster, and eternal measurement, often described as a glue that holds high mountains together, also thaws.
The drones shown a large plot of birch glacier, which collapsed on Wednesday at about 3:30 pm (14:30 BST). The avalate from the dirt that swept over Black sounded like a deafening clatter when it swept into the valley, leaving a huge cloud of dust.
Glaziologists who monitor the thaw has been warning for years that some alpine cities and villages may be at risk, and the blatt is not even the first to be evacuated.
In the east of Switzerland, the residents of the village of Bridnets were evacuated two years ago because the slope on the mountain over them collapsed.
Since then, they have been allowed to return only for a short time.
In 2017, eight tourists were killed, and many houses collapsed when the largest landslide went down near the village of Bond.
The latest report on the condition of Switzerland’s glaciers suggested that all of them could leave for a century, when global temperatures failed to be maintained as part of 1.5
Many climatic scientists believe that the goal has already been missed, that is, the glacial thaw will reduce, increasing the risk of floods and landslides, as well as threatening greater communities such as Blatten.
