Summary: On August 14 the Genoa bridge in Italy collapses, killing 43 and injuring 15. It suddenly fell 45m along with dozens of vehicles in busy traffic. The collpase has led to a fierce debate about Italy's infrastructure. The company that operated the bridge has set up a fund for victims' families. The government has set up a commission to examine the causes of the disaster. The cause of the collpase is still unclear, but action is still being taken.
Analysis: This article is part of the most recent events of August from CNN and BBC. This event has really surprised me because this is a bridge that has been around since 1967 and it is a major link between Italy and France. The way that the bridge just suddenly collapsed and killed dozens of people was just very tragic. I think if this has to do with Italy's infrastructure then they should closely examine everything that was made with the material or by the company.
