The search for the two missing persons began after emergency services found the mangled wreck of their three-wheeler in the mud, raising concerns about survival. Local mayor Emilio Nuzzo expressed limited optimism, stating, "We hope that they jumped out ... and may still be alive somewhere, but from what the experts tell me, there isn't a lot of hope." This highlights the tragic situation as rescuers work to locate the missing individuals.
Search teams faced challenging conditions due to severe weather, with torrential rainfall affecting the region and leading to the landslide in San Felice a Cancello. While 10 search teams were deployed, the surrounding areas also experienced violent thunderstorms and hail, underlining the broader impacts of climate change. Climate scientists warn about the increasing frequency of extreme weather events as a consequence of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions.
