Five Dead In DRC Landslide
Four women and a child died when a landslide flattened their houses after heavy rain in Bukavu in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, local sources said on Saturday.
“Five dead bodies have been found in Kadutu commune after a landslip following torrential rain” overnight, local civil representative Hypocrate Marume told AFP.
He said the victims were four women and a small boy – a tally confirmed by mayor Munyole Kashama – adding searches for further bodies were under way.
Kashama said at least four people had been injured.
A landslide last year killed 40 people in a fishing village in the northeastern region of Ituri.
I am glad that I found this site!
