Italian Republic Files Civil Claim in Swiss Proceedings Over Crans‑Montana Fire

On 29 April 2026, the Italian Republic, through the Office of the State Advocate General, filed a civil claim in the Swiss criminal proceedings over the fire that occurred in Crans‑Montana between 31 December 2025 and 1 January 2026. The claim is based on direct damage to the Italian public purse caused by resources mobilised by the National Civil Protection Service to provide medical, psychological and logistical assistance to Italian nationals involved. The document states that the involvement of local authorities in the circumstances leading to the incident is highly likely, justifying a request for compensation against all civilly liable parties. The government says it will continue to monitor the case, provide transparent information and support the victims’ families.
