Rigopiano, you dig to get to the heart of the structure – The Republic

Do not stop the research in the area where up to last Wednesday on the site of the hotel Rigopiano: five days from the avalanche that swept him away will he still hopes to find in life someone in some ‘pocket of air’ between ice, snow, debris, and facilities of the hotel. The provisional budget of the disaster is of the 11 survivors, 6 dead – the last identified yesterday – and 23 missing. Good news regarding children saved: “they Are fine and will be discharged today,” said Julian Lombardi, the chief of pediatrics of the hospital of Pescara. “We are asking for the presence of psychologists, it is important to their figure,” he added, Lombardi – We ruled out medical conditions as a result of hypothermia. But the path is not concluded. It will take time and you need to respect their time.”

Firefighters working. Relief operations with dozens of men continued last night, despite the rain this morning continues to fall on the area. “Fire all night at work”, stress the same vigilance in a tweet. “Proceed to the exploration of local invested by the avalanche”, they underline.



“we Try to get to the heart of the hotel”. “Our working hypothesis is that the avalanche may not have reached and saturated all of the local, that there is a heart of the structure is reached. If, then, there can be no conditions of life, this, of course, we don’t know. We are very focused on this goal”, explained Luca Cari, a spokesman for the fire Department, to SkyTg24. “The work is uninterrupted, he added,” our teams will alternate. We continue in the exploration of the premises of the interior, following the hope of finding people still alive, even if there is no certainty. We are going from local to local, we are punching holes in the walls, also by eighty centimeters. We were able to break through with an excavator, and that wall of snow that we could not bring the heavy equipment up to the property”. To retrieve the body of the last victim is found, there will be to do “a job very long, will defini tely require yet of the hours”.

The numbers: an avalanche as 4000 tir

bad Weather and avalanche risk. The major difficulties for the search operations, remain tied to the weather and road conditions since the alternating one-way on the road that leads to the resort does not facilitate operations. The risk of avalanche remains on the whole structure, even if yesterday went from 4 to 3, however a high level.

Your e-mail and the relief never arrived. On the front of the investigations is of particular importance to the email, acquired to the acts by the public Prosecutor of Pescara, with which the direction of the hotel and asked the Municipality of Farindola, the Province and the Prefecture for urgent action to reopen the road so as to allow the guests, terrified by the shock of earthquake and by the bad weather and decided to stay on the outside of the structure – to be able to return home.


The call. At 17,40 about the 18th of January, the Prefecture of Pescara would have called the manager of the hotel Rigopiano Bruno Tommaso to ask what was going on up there, as a result of the first phone calls alarmed by Giampiero Wall. Thomas, who was in Pescara, an official of the Prefecture would have confirmed not to have news of the avalanche, even though he had not heard of recently the operators were to Rigopiano. And’ this, according to the investigators, which could have led to the first ‘misunderstanding’ on the severity of the events. The subsequent attempts of Quirino Marcella, alerted by the Wall, would thus be defined as ‘buffalo’, along with other false alarms evaluated in the hectic day of 18. These calls have not yet been acquired by the investigators, but will soon. The prosecutor’s office in Pescara summit between the magistrates and the police to make the point on the investigation.

Injured a firefighter. A fireman who was working among the rubble of the hotel Rigopiano remained slightly injured in an accident that happened this morning. The fireman, as he was entering the inside of the structure to continue search of missing, was wounded in the hand. The firefighter was taken away in an ambulance, but their conditions are not serious.
