Three days of rain and in Sant’Agata, in southern Italy, they have run out of half a cemetery. Over there, a torrent has washed away 20 coffins and 80 urns funeral homes The mayor of the town has insisted that it was a dry riverbed, but after the strong storms, he has overwhelmed the cemetery.
This is not the first time this has happened in Italy. Near Genoa, in the north of the country, a year ago the seagulls seemed to presage what would happen seconds later and flew away moments before everything went down the cliff, as can be seen in the video. The coffins were left at the mercy of the waves and the firefighters tried to rescue the urns from the bottom of the sea.
Just three months ago, another cemetery, this time in Naples, also collapsed. The relatives of the people buried there then complained about the lack of maintenance: “We are paying for years and years of abandonment,” a man asserted at the time.
An abandonment that shakes the peace of Italian cemeteries.
