Cyclone Harry has caused widespread and severe damage across Sardinia, with losses expected to reach hundreds of millions of euros, according to regional governor Alessandra Todde.
Flooding has hit towns and rural areas alike, while key infrastructure has suffered heavy strain. Several major roads remain closed.
Todde said it will take days to assess the full economic impact of Cyclone Harry in Sardinia. Some damage is not yet visible, particularly in ports, roads and coastal areas.
Beaches and coastlines eroded by the storm will need careful evaluation and restoration before the scale of the losses becomes clear.
