The Italian army has started
taking coffins from Bergamo, the city worst-hit by the
coronavirus outbreak, to crematoriums outside the Lombardy
region after local services were unable to process the dead.
The first convoy of military vehicles on Wednesday night took
an initial 60 coffins from Bergamo cemetery to other regions'
crematoriums so funerals could be carried out.
Coffins had been piling up, unburied, in the northern city's
cemetery.
