‘I’m scared,’ Israeli boy says
after family killed in Italian cable car
By Rossella Tercatin*
When the emergency service officers managed to reach the mountainous area where the cabin of a cable car near Lake Maggiore had crashed several minutes earlier on Sunday, they found out that two children were still alive.
Both of them were rushed on two helicopters to the same hospital, the Regina Margherita in the city of Turin. According to the Italian daily Corriere della Sera, since they did not have any documents on them, they were admitted as “unknown” patients.
A little later, they would be identified as Eitan Moshe Biran and Mattia Zorloni – both of them five-year-old, and with no parents by their side, after the crash had taken them away forever.
The Stresa-Mottarone cable car takes tourists and locals from the town on Lake Maggiore, almost 1,400 meters above sea level, to the top of Mottarone Mountain in 20 minutes. At least 14 people, including five Israelis, died when the cabin plunged to the ground.
Mattia’s conditions were immediately declared desperate; he was sedated but succumbed to his wounds a few hours later. Eitan was rushed into surgery. In the accident, he had sustained head and thoracic traumas, and had multiple fractures in his legs.
