- Legenda: Blatten (SWITZERLAND SCHWEIZ SUISSE), 29/05/2025.- A general view, with the village of Kippel in the foreground, after a massive avalanche triggered by the collapse of the Birch Glacier nearly destroyed the village of Blatten, Switzerland, 29 May 2025. One person went missing, and numerous houses were destroyed after a large part of Blatten, which had been evacuated earlier, was buried under masses of ice, mud, and rock. Between 19 and 28 May, several million cubic meters of rock fell from the Kleines Nesthorn mountain above Blatten, forming a nine-million-tonne debris cone on the Birch Glacier, which ultimately collapsed on 28 May 2025.
