Some 26 of the 40 dead were teenagers, with the victims including a 14-year-old French national and a 14-year-old from Switzerland, police said.

Their names have not been released.

In total, 21 of the dead were Swiss citizens, seven were French and six were Italian.

Other victims came from Romania, Turkey, Portugal, Belgium, as well as one Swiss-French dual national.

A 15-year-old Brit-educated girl is also believed to be among the victims.

Charlotte Niddam is listed on the resort’s website as a babysitter, adding that she is in Crans “very often”.

She attended Immanuel College, a private Jewish school in Bushey, Hertfordshire.

Photos documenting other missing persons, mostly teenagers and young people, with their names, dates of birth and relatives’ contact details, have been posted on social media.
