A group of eight climbers was hit by an avalanche on the Castore mountain in the Monte Rosa massif on Monday, sources said.
    Some of the mountaineers were injured, the sources said.
    The Alpine Rescue Service was unable to use its helicopters because of bad weather conditions so it had reach the party on foot.
    Four mountaineers, two Italians and two South Koreans, were reported missing on the Italian side of Mont Blanc at the weekend.
    The weather conditions have made it impossible for rescuers to search for them so far.
