Heavy rain triggers severe flooding in northeastern Italy

Heavy rain triggered widespread flooding across northeastern Italy on Monday, affecting several towns in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region.

Fire crews carried out dozens of rescue operations, including evacuations by dinghy for residents trapped in their homes.

Authorities said search efforts were also underway for two people missing after a mudslide struck a house in Brazzano di Cormons.
