Rome (AFP) March 19, 2023
A Swedish woman has died and another is missing after being hit by an avalanche Sunday above the Italian ski resort of Courmayeur, news agencies said.

The pair were part of a group of four skiing off-piste in a deep gully in the Val Veny when the avalanche occurred around lunchtime.

Two of them were found safe and well, but rescuers recovered the body of a woman, reported to be 24 or 25 years old, according to the Ansa news agency.

The fourth skier was swept away, and has yet to be found.

Search operations, which included a helicopter, were hampered by poor weather. They are due to resume on Monday morning.
