Zagreb buried in worst snow for 57 years

(newspoint) The Croatian capital has been hit with the worse snow in almost six decades, causing severe disruptions to transport systems, and even causing fatalities.

Officials said four people have died in Croatia and two in Serbia as a result of blizzards in the region of southwestern Europe over the weekend, closing airports and roads and blocking public transportation in big cities.

People have been warned to stay indoors, and told not to drive, despite conditions improving since the weekend.
