In Switzerland, melting glaciers due to climate change reveal secrets from half a century ago.
Due to melting glaciers in August, tourists have already discovered unidentified human remains and a crashed plane.
This is reported by The Guardian.
Two French climbers stumbled upon a human skeleton while climbing the Chessin glacier in the southern canton of Valais. The remains were taken by the police for examination.
It is noted that the bones were found next to an old trail that tourists have not used for about 10 years, says mountain hut caretaker Dario Andenmatten. It is from there that climbers begin their ascent in this region. The tourists who found the skeleton apparently used old maps, which is why they went to an abandoned trail.
A week before this incident, another body was found on the Stockey glacier, near the resort of Zermatt.
< p>Since 1925, about 300 people have disappeared in this Alpine region, the newspaper notes.
Recall, in the Dolomites in the province of Trentino in northern Italy, at least 6 people died as a result of the collapse of the Marmolada glacier people, 14 more were injured.
