WWI soldiers' bodies found in ice

THE preserved bodies of three Austrian soldiers killed in World War I had been found at the foot of an Italian glacier, 86 years after their deaths, a museum in northern Italy said today.

The bodies were found 3400 metres up the San Matteo mountain and were said to be exceptionally well preserved.

The area was the scene of fighting between Austrian and Italian troops in 1918 and the Austrian soldiers would have belonged to a regiment based at Dimaro nearby.It is believed that the men died when they were attacked with grenades. Their bodies have been taken to a morgue in Peio and will be transferred to a military cemetery.
