Recent torrential rains in El Salvador have resulted in a devastating toll, with the deaths of six individuals reported on Friday. Among the victims were two young girls, aged 5 and 7, along with four adults who tragically lost their lives after being buried in their homes due to wall collapses and landslides on the outskirts of the capital.
The inclement weather has been attributed to two weather systems affecting the region. One system along Guatemala's Pacific coast and another in the Gulf of Mexico, which gave rise to Tropical Storm Alberto, have brought heavy rains to southern Mexico and Central America.
