Deadly Landslide Buries Over 2,000 in Papua New Guinea | Firstpost America

Deadly Landslide Buries Over 2,000 in Papua New Guinea | Firstpost America
More than 2,000 people have been buried alive by a landslide that struck the Yambali village in Enga province of Papua New Guinea on May 24. This number is nearly three times the estimate of the United Nations, which had put the estimated death toll at 670. Now, Papua New Guinea's government has formally asked for international help and its nearest neighbour, Australia, is sending aircraft and equipment to help local rescuers. Meanwhile, the UN is providing food, water, blankets, and mattresses to the survivors. Rescue operations are challenging for the teams who face rainfall, falling rocks, and tribal violence as hurdles.

2000..... Life is strange, one day your there the next your gone

[@SaveMave-cq1kp]

While people From Enga Province were suffering by the death, Prime minister's James Marape was so ignorent to his people and cannot afford to help them. He was concerning only about his sit as Prime Minister's without taking care Of his people. "What the crazy leadership is this?"😮😮

Tragic News. Pray that there will be more survival and be they safe. Rest in Peace for deceased souls. 🙏

[@taniagalloway4789]

"Nearest neighbor" is Australia? False. But the news is tragic and I hope Indonesia, Australia, and anyone else in the neighborhood pitches in to recover as many souls as possible.

[@krishnay-tt9ph]

2000 seems an exaggeration for funding. if 10 houses destroyed, 10 people in each ís 100. I cannot see 2000 people in that area of the slide. tragic none the less.

Why is the person on the thumbnail smiling?

[@fendistofid5447]

[@dcameraman7823]

There must be initial conditions before the disaster to ensure that there are really 2000 people there? or just enlarging the story

[@NiuginiMal]

The numbers are adding up,there is a danger it could be even more than 2 000

[@malicktjmatiabeyuwi7587]

[@wuhaninstituteofvirology]

(uh, there "nearest neighbor" is indonesia - sharing a land border with PNG...does australia have a land border with it? no ...& its not "an island nation" - it's a nation that comprises 1/2 of an island (a very large island: new guinea)

[@SERAHMichael-eg1ye]
