Civil protection crews in Italy have created a 150-meter wide “no-go zone” in the Sicilian town of Niscemi after days of heavy rain from a cyclone triggered a massive landslide, leaving many buildings teetering on the edge of a cliff. Over 1,500 people have been evacuated. See the images and read more from @ABCNews@flipboard.com
