Avalanches kill at least four people in Norway

Heavy snowfall in recent weeks triggered a series of avalanches in the Troms region of Norway.

Two people were confirmed killed when an avalanche swept a house and barn into the sea on the island of Reinøya, according to the authorities.

Two tourists, who are believed to be foreigners, were killed in two other avalanches in Lyngen and at Storslett in the Nordreisa area. (ILKHA)
