(ANSA) - TRENTO, 04 JUL - The firefighters guarded the area of the collapse in Marmolada with drones all night and trapoco will also take off the drones of the Trentino Alpine Rescue.
In the meantime, two groups of relatives of victims and missing have arrived in Canazei, who have increased in number: they are in fact three or four more than the 16 communicated yesterday.
The victims are all at the Palaghiaccio di Canazei, where the burning room has been set up and where the relatives, in the morning, will begin the painful ritual of recognizing the bodies.
At the moment there are 6 confirmed victims: three Italians, a Czechoslovakian, plus a man and a woman not yet identified, but the toll is likely to worsen.
Meteorological conditions will be decisive for evaluating the direct intervention of rescuers: cold and low temperatures are essential to ensure minimum safety for operations, given that an enormous amount of unsafe ice remained on the mountain.
To evaluate how to proceed, the evaluation of the Arabba and Meteo Trentino meteorologists will be fundamental.
The activities of rescuers on the Marmolada glacier continued during the night to look for any survivors after yesterday's disaster.
Personnel from the Trentino Civil Protection were engaged in the inspections, with the support of the Alpine Rescue and the drones of the Fire Brigade equipped with thermal cameras, capable of identifying the source of heat emitted by a person even in the dark.
At the moment there is no news on the outcome of the inspections.
