A reported 6,500 residents in the
Abruzzo region were still without power on Monday, down from
11,000 on Sunday afternoon, after the region was gripped by snow
and sub-freezing temperatures.
Local authorities, firefighters, civil protection and Italian
electricity company Enel said they were cooperating to access
areas that are still isolated and restore electricity supply to
all residents in the region, which was also rocked by
earthquakes of magnitude 5 and above last Wednesday.
