What serious consequences did the avalanche cause in a Swiss ski resort?

Recently, the Swiss Alps have been hit by heavy snowfall, causing traffic disruptions. On the 22nd local time, a video was uploaded to social networking sites. The video recorded the moment an avalanche occurred in Zermatt, a Swiss ski resort.

The avalanche occurred at a certain distance from the town. People did not run away in panic, but stood on the street to witness this scene.

In another video, you can clearly see the heavy snow pouring down from the top of the mountain like a white waterfall.

On the 22nd, due to snowfall in the Alps, Swiss officials once again issued an avalanche warning. A spokesman for Zermatt said that local roads and railways were suspended, and helicopters used to pick up ski tourists were also temporarily suspended due to weather conditions.

The ski resort of Zermatt is located under the most famous Matterhorn in the Alps. Due to severe snowstorms, many avalanches have occurred in the area recently.
