The Swiss village of Blatten has been devastated by a glacier collapse, burying it under rock and ice debris, rendering it nearly uninhabitable. Survivors, like Daniel Ritler, express profound sorrow over their lost homes and memories but acknowledge they were fortunate to evacuate in time. Despite the calamity claiming one life, the resilience of the 300 evacuated residents is evident. Aid efforts focus on coordination from nearby Wiler, as access to the disaster zone remains perilous, encapsulating the overwhelming emotional and physical toll of this disaster.
It was like an explosion like an explosion in my heart,
We lost our house, our stables, and of course, all those memories. We lived in a little paradise,
