Search and rescue teams are struggling to access a mountainside in Papua New Guinea where more than 2,000 people are feared dead after a massive landslide.
Luseta Laso Mana, acting director of the South Pacific island nation’s National Disaster Centre, said the landslide “buried more than 2.000 people alive” and caused “major destruction” at Yambali village in the Enga province, in a letter sent to the United Nations resident coordinator on Sunday.
