Heavy rains have set off a landslide in Guatemala’s capital, sweeping several humble homes into a river and leaving a young girl dead.
The 1,000 survivors of a mudslide that buried a Guatemalan town are living in squalor in a makeshift settlement that offers hunger and death., which extends to November. There are few controls on where people build their homes, especially in poor settlements, putting them at greater risk.
Images provided by rescuers showed a long path of the landslide and evidence of domestic life strewn along the river bank. The military set up a command center to oversee the rescue effort.
