Overview

• A mudslide on June 16 struck Borca di Cadore after severe thunderstorms, damaging around 20 houses and several vehicles.
• Firefighters and civil protection teams have been working since dawn to clear mud and rock from blocked entrances and stabilize affected homes.
• Up to ten residents were trapped by debris but have since been freed and no injuries have been reported.
• The SS 51 Alemagna route toward Cortina d’Ampezzo remains closed as crews operate under emergency orders to reopen the vital link.
• The June 16 landslide follows a massive June 14 rockfall near San Vito Cadore and recalls a 2009 disaster in the same area that claimed two lives.
