More than 1,000 people were evacuated in Sicily after a five-kilometre section of cliff crumbled during a storm, leaving houses perched perilously on the edge, authorities said Monday. Land was continuing to give way due to rain that has soaked the area in recent days, said the mayor of the southern hill town of Niscemi. FRANCE 24’s Seema Gupta reports from Rome.
