<p>The rockslide hit a group of houses in the municipality of Lostallo.</p>
<p>Rescuers have been searching all day Saturday with excavators and specially trained search dogs.</p>
<p>William Kloter, from the Swiss police, who is heading the rescue operations, told local media that he was hoping to find the three missing people alive.</p>
<p>Swiss President Viola Amherd said she was shocked by the scale of the damage caused by the severe weather.</p>

“My thoughts are with those affected. I thank the emergency personnel for their tireless efforts in this difficult situation,” Ms Amherd said on X.</p>
<p>Elsewhere in Switzerland, the popular tourist destination of Zermatt in the southern canton of Valais near the famous Matterhorn mountain remains inaccessible.</p>
<p>Heavy rains and melting snow have caused the Mattervispa River to overflow, cutting off the village.</p>
<p>Dramatic videos showed the otherwise small river that flows through Zermatt turning into a muddy flash flood, partially submerging streets in the popular ski resort.</p>
<p>The Matterhorn-Gotthard Railway halted operations with no alternative transportation available, the railway company announced on social media on Saturday morning.</p>
<p>Emergency services in the canton of Valais were on high alert over the levels of the Rhone River, which reached its peak on Saturday.</p>
<p>Authorities have warned residents to avoid lower parts of their houses, including cellars, and keep away from swelling rivers and refrain from parking on bridges.</p>
<p>People were also advised against filming or photographing the floods due to safety reasons.</p>
