"The situation is complicated," Festa added, "but we have been working with great professionalism since the very first moments."

The rescue coordination center, located at the Avellino prefecture, has urged residents to "keep doors and windows closed and avoid, unless absolutely necessary, travel outside until the situation has passed." The affected municipalities are: Avellino, Atripalda, Montefredane, Manocalzati, Mercogliano Monteforte Irpino, Forino, Contrada Cesinali, Aiello del Sabato, Capriglia Irpina, Altavilla Irpina, Serino, Ospedaletto d'Alpinolo, Solofra, Pratola Serra, Montoro, and Prata di Principato Ultra.
