Glacier collapsed in Switzerland.
Switzerland glacier collapse: The terrible influence of climate change in the Alps region of Switzerland has once caused great havoc. On May 28, 2025, the sudden collapse of birch glacier in Blatton village of Valais region has caused heavy havoc. This incident not only destroyed an entire village, but has also created a crisis on the existence of two more villages. This has caused panic in the entire area. Relief and rescue operations continue in place of the glacier melting. However, no data of deaths has been released yet.
Destruction in Blatton village
According to the report of “The Weather Channel”, after the glacier melted, the scene of destruction in Blatton village is clearly visible. The horrific waves of snow, rock and mud caused by the breakdown of the glacier destroyed about 90% of the village of Blatton. A 64 -year -old man is missing in this disaster, while a matter of relief is that about 300 people had already been safely evacuated. The fall of this glacier blocked the river Lonja, due to which a huge artificial lake has been formed. This has posed a serious threat of floods and the situation remains very sensitive. The Swiss army and emergency teams are constantly engaged in rescue and surveillance work.
Danger bell also in nearby villages
Glacier’s debris has put not only blaston, but also many other villages in the vicinity. In view of the possibility of floods, the administration has also increased vigilance in those villages and preparations have been made for possible withdrawal. Residents have been warned to be ready for transfer at any time.
Global warming warning
Experts say that this phenomenon is a direct result of global climate change. The glaciers are melting rapidly due to rising temperatures, causing increasing the risk of disasters such as landslides and avalanche in mountainous areas. The layers of the permafrost are also no longer stable, which is weakening the ground’s grip.
Scientific and administrative strategy
Local administration and scientific institutions are making strategies to deal with such disasters together. Special attention is being paid to satellite monitoring, pre -warning system and safe withdrawal routes.
Global warning time
This phenomenon of Switzerland is a global warning that such disasters can be more intense and destructive if concrete steps are still not taken against climate change. This is the time when the whole world will have to take decisive action towards environmental protection. According to the “The Weather Channel” report, the mayor of Blatton said, “Unimaginable … a Alpine village in Southern Switzerland which is now covered with thousands of tons of snow, rocks and debris due to the collapse and landslide of a huge glacier.
