Multiple landslides triggered by torrential rains have claimed the lives of at least 151 people in southern India's Kerala state. The landslides, which occurred in Wayanad district, have left 186 individuals injured and 187 unaccounted for. Rescue efforts are underway, with over 300 workers tirelessly searching through mud and debris to locate survivors.
The landslides, which struck hilly areas early Tuesday, have caused widespread destruction, flattening houses, uprooting trees, and washing away roads and bridges. The affected areas, including Meppadi, Mundakkai, and Chooralmala, have been left isolated, making rescue operations challenging.
