A massive glacier collapse in Switzerland’s Blatten village on May 28 buried 90% of the area under ice, mud, and rock. The disaster followed a May 19 evacuation after warnings of an imminent landslide. One person remains missing. Dramatic footage showed debris engulfing the mountain village. Experts are assessing climate change’s role, while Swiss officials urge public caution. President Karin Keller-Sutter expressed solidarity as emergency services closed access to the valley and warned of ongoing hazards from unstable terrain and falling debris.
