Milan – A cable car who transported tourists to the south of Naples crashed into the ground on Thursday after a cable broke, killing at least four people and a cross of criticism one, authorities said.
The broken cable stopped the cablezes both up and down while crossing Monte Faito in the city of Castellamare di Stabia. The possible ascending cable car crashed, causing deaths and injuries, while eight tourists and an operator were evacuated from the cable car down, Michele de Bari said.
Three tourists were among four people who died, including a British and Israeli woman, according to Marco de Rosa, the spokesman for the mayor of the local city of Vico Ecuario. Only two of the three foreign victims had been identified in the morning after the accident.

Italian prosecutors have opened an investigation into multiple involuntary homicide and guilty disaster.
“The traction cable broke. The downstream emergency brake worked, but obviously not the cabin that was the station,” said the mayor of Castellammare, Luigi Vicinanza.
The Alpine rescue of Italy, together with firefighters, police and civil protection services responded to the accident.
The accident occurred only one week after the cable car, popular for its views to Mount Vesubio and the Bay of Naples, reopened for the season.

The Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni expressed her condolences for the victims and their families and said she was in contact with rescuers. He was in Washington, where with US president Donald Trump.
Fourteen people were killed in a accident in 2021 When a cable broke in the picturesque region of the Northern Italy Lake, sending a cable car that collapsed to the ground and then fell on a slope.
