Meloni in Niscemi visiting areas affected by cyclone Harry
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni visited Niscemi to assess the damage caused by the cyclone Harry and the subsequent landslide.
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni arrived in Niscemi, Sicily, alongside Civil Protection Chief Fabio Ciciliano, to assess the areas impacted by a severe landslide that followed cyclone Harry's arrival. On January 28, a significant landslide prompted the immediate evacuation of residents from the red zone of Niscemi, a town in the Caltanissetta province where the destruction has been profound, affecting the local community's safety and wellbeing. During her inspection, Meloni seeks to understand the full extent of the disaster and is likely considering federal support for recovery efforts in the wake of such environmental crises, particularly as Sicily grapples with increasing climate-related challenges.
