switzerland, italy - Switzerland and Italy have redrawn a new border along the top of the Matterhorn, one of the highest mountains in Europe spanning both countries.

A combined Italian-Swiss commission agreed on the change in May 2023, which was approved by the latter country last Friday. Italy still needs to approve the treaty for border adjustment, reports Bloomberg, but it seems to be a formality.

The two countries have agreed to adjust the border around the landmarks Testa Grigia, Plateau Rosa, Rifugio Carrel, and Gobba di Rollin based on their economic interests. As the Matterhorn glacier melts more towards Italy, Switzerland gains more land.

Swiss glaciers lost four percent of their volume last year. That is the second-largest annual decline ever recorded. The largest decline was six percent, reached in 2022. On some glaciers, there isn't even any ice left to measure anymore due to melting.
