The prefecture confirmed that four of the injured remain in critical condition, while five sustained serious injuries. The storm, described as a “mini-tornado,” hit around 5:45 p.m., causing widespread destruction across several municipalities.
Authorities said the tornado swept through a construction site, a medical-social facility, and a residential building, toppling cranes and tearing roofs from nearby structures. A 23-year-old construction worker was killed when one of the cranes collapsed on the site, according to local officials. Emergency services, including 80 firefighters, 50 police officers and 20 medical staff, were deployed to assist with rescue operations and secure the affected area.
