wave of more than three meters The water bomb has fallen on the area with a wave of estimated height of over 3 meters. According to a first reconstruction of Civil Protection, the intense rain would find a ‘plug’ of material and bales of straw on a bridge upstream of the river Lierza, thus causing the flooding. The force of the water swept away people, furniture, cars, causing landslides and divellendo trees. Termination of the shock wave, the parking near the festival was still submerged in eight feet of water, which barely flowed into the night.The governor Zaia “We will ask at once a state of emergency for the entire affected area. This is a mourning throughout the Veneto and Italy, “he said in Refrontolo the President of the Veneto, Luca Zaia, who all night was held in constant contact with rescuers.

Palazzo Chigi. As happened last night in Treviso, the Government expresses sympathy for the victims to President Zaia, but announced that he had “turned the page. Just chase and do the ‘notaries’ emergencies – is written on the site of the Palazzo Chigi – now invest in works of defense, prevention and safety. At 570 yards away even the anti instability. ” “What happened in Treviso – continues – is just the latest of many alarm bells in this early summer has seen casualties and damage caused by a climate increasingly characterized by extreme weather phenomena a defined time and now unfortunately commonplace. We mourn the other victims that lengthen the list of deaths but this government, in contrast to what has always happened in the past, chose to end the season which saw Italy chase emergencies and begin to invest in defense and mitigation of risks, prevention and safety. For this reason, already in Italy unlock, unlock yards anti-collapse by investing 650 million not spent the first few years. For this to work is the structure of the mission of the government – is still written on the site of the Palazzo Chigi – coordinating this sector and we have already carried out meetings with all regions, from Veneto, to identify the most urgent works to be carried out, the too much of the funding has never been turned into construction sites, even for the Stability Pact, and the quickest way to overcome the paradoxical bureaucratic constraints that slow or stop anti emergency works. “
