Italy Prepares for Mass Evacuation Amidst Intensifying Seismic Activity near Naples

The Italian government is preparing for a potential mass evacuation of tens of thousands of people living near the Campi Flegrei super volcano near Naples. The area has experienced over 1,100 earthquakes in the past month, with the ground rising by 1.5 cm per month. While there is no immediate threat of an eruption, concerns over the impact on local buildings have prompted the government to discuss measures including building strength checks and increased resources for civil protection agencies. Evacuation tests are set to begin, and a communication campaign will be launched to raise public awareness.
