Kuyang'ana Kumbuyo pa Zadzidzidzi Zamadzi Zomwe Zidayesa Chitetezo Chachibadwidwe Chatsopano cha Italy komanso Udindo wa Odzipereka pakuyankha kwa Masoka.
Pa 6 Novembala, 1994, idakhazikikabe m'chikumbukiro chonse cha Italy, umboni wa kulimba mtima ndi mgwirizano wa dzikolo. Patsiku lino, dera la Piemonte linakumana ndi kusefukira kwamphamvu kwambiri m'mbiri yake, chochitika chomwe chinali chiyeso choyamba chofunikira masiku ano. Chitetezo cha Pachikhalidwe, idakhazikitsidwa zaka ziwiri zokha zapita. Chigumula cha mu 94 sichinali tsoka lachilengedwe chabe; inali nthawi yosinthira momwe Italy idayendera oyang'anira mwadzidzidzi ndi mgwirizano wodzipereka.
Mvula yosalekezayo inayamba kugwetsa chigawo cha kumpoto chakumadzulo kwa dziko la Italy, ndipo mitsinjeyo inasefukira n’kufika pobowola, kuphwanyitsa madzi, ndiponso kumiza m’matauni. Zithunzi za nyumba zitamizidwa theka, misewu inasanduka mitsinje, ndipo anthu akutengedwa kupita kumalo otetezeka anadzakhala chizindikiro cha dera limene lazingidwa ndi mphamvu za chilengedwe. Kuwonongeka sikunali kokha kwa zomangamanga koma kwa mitima ya anthu omwe anatsala kuti atenge zidutswa za miyoyo yawo yowonongeka.
Bungwe la Civil Protection, lomwe panthawiyo linali litangoyamba kumene, lidalimbikitsidwa kuti likhale lodziwika bwino, lomwe linapatsidwa ntchito yoyang'anira momwe angayankhire pavuto lalikulu lomwe silinayambe layendetsedwa ndi bungwe latsopanoli. Bungweli, lomwe linapangidwa mu 1992 pambuyo pa ngozi ya Vajont Dam ya 1963 komanso chilala choopsa cha 1988-1990, idapangidwa kuti ikhale bungwe logwirizanitsa kuti lizitha kuyang'anira zochitika zosiyanasiyana zadzidzidzi, kuyambira kulosera ndi kupewa mpaka kuthandizira ndi kukonzanso.
Mitsinje itasefukira m'mphepete mwawo, chitetezo cha Civil Protection chinayesedwa. Yankho linali lachangu komanso lamitundumitundu. Odzipereka ochokera kudera lonselo adalowa m'derali, ndikupanga msana wachitetezo chadzidzidzi. Anagwira ntchito limodzi ndi ogwira ntchito ogwira ntchito yopulumutsa anthu, kupereka chithandizo chofunikira pothawa, chithandizo choyambira, ndi ntchito zoyendera. Mzimu wodzipereka, wozikidwa mozama mu chikhalidwe cha ku Italy, unawala kwambiri pamene anthu ochokera m'madera osiyanasiyana amathandizira pa ntchito yopereka chithandizo, mwambo womwe ukupitirizabe mpaka lero, monga momwe tawonera mu kusefukira kwa madzi posachedwapa ku Toscana.
Zotsatira za kusefukira kwa madzizi zinabweretsa chidwi chozama pa kayendetsedwe ka nthaka, ndondomeko za chilengedwe, ndi ntchito ya machitidwe ochenjeza mwamsanga pofuna kuchepetsa masoka. Maphunziro adaphunziridwa ponena za kufunikira kwa zomangamanga zowonjezereka, njira zokonzekera bwino, ndi ntchito yofunika kwambiri yodziwitsa anthu pochepetsa kuopsa kwa masoka otere.
Pafupifupi zaka makumi atatu zapita kuchokera tsiku lowopsa la Novembala, ndipo zipsera za chigumula zachira, koma zikumbukiro zidakalipo. Zimakhala chikumbutso cha mphamvu za chilengedwe ndi mzimu wosagonjetseka wa madera omwe amawuka, mobwerezabwereza, kumanganso ndi kubwezeretsa. Alluvione mu Piemonte sanali masoka achilengedwe; zinali zokumana nazo zachitukuko cha chitetezo cha anthu ku Italy komanso kuyitanira zida kwa ngwazi zosadziwika: odzipereka.
Masiku ano, chitetezo chamakono cha Civil Protection chili ngati imodzi mwa njira zotsogola kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi zadzidzidzi, ndipo mizu yake imachokera kumasiku ovuta koma osinthika a chigumula cha 1994. Ndi dongosolo lomwe linamangidwa pa maziko a mgwirizano ndi udindo wogawana nawo, zikhalidwe zomwe zinawonetsedwa m'maola amdima kwambiri a kusefukira kwa madzi ndikupitirizabe kukhala mfundo zoyendetsera mavuto.
Nkhani ya chigumula cha 1994 Piemonte sichimangokhudza kutayika ndi chiwonongeko chokha. Ndi nkhani ya kulimbikira kwa anthu, mphamvu za anthu, ndi kubadwa kwa njira yodalirika yoyendetsera ngozi ku Italy-njira yomwe ikupitirizabe kupulumutsa miyoyo ndi kuteteza midzi kudera lonselo ndi kupitirira.
