A huge part of a glacier in the Swiss Alps broke off its path on Wednesday afternoon, causing massive blocks of ice, mud, and rocks to fall, burying an entire mountain village that authorities had evacuated this month due to the risk of rock collapse, according to Reuters.
The Swiss Radio and Television Corporation (SRF) reported that homes were destroyed in the village located in southern Switzerland.
The glacier collapse in #Switzerland is a sign of the direct effects of climate change, as glaciers are melting more due to rising temperatures.
