In Crans-Montana, the ski resort where at least 40 people died in a New Year’s Day blaze, many were struggling to process one of the worst such disasters in Switzerland’s history.
The fire that killed at least 40 people in a Swiss bar on New Year’s Day was made more likely by apparent flaws in the site’s design and management, experts say.
The Swiss authorities say small fireworks on beverage bottles probably ignited foam insulation on the bar’s basement ceiling, setting off the broader blaze.
