Full of the Arno, the Folgore returns to help Pisa

11/02/14

Starting from the 4 of this morning over 115 Army soldiers intervened, at the request of the prefecture of Pisa, to face the risk of flooding of the Arno.

The soldiers are busy in the Lungarno area, in the city center, to reinforce, with sandbags, the bulkheads they had helped to assemble in the morning of 31 January.

The soldiers of the "Folgore" Paratroopers Brigade, intervening with means and materials in support of the local authorities, are working together with the volunteers of the Civil Protection and the Fire Brigade.
