IamChromatica 2,025 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2017/08/14/hundreds-buried-alive-in-massive-sierra-leone-mudslides-and-floods/?utm_term=.081e5db2e139 "After a night of torrential rain, entire hillsides have collapsed into fast-moving mud in and around Sierra Leone's capital, Freetown, on Monday. Speaking to the news agency Agence France-Presse, a Red Cross spokesman said 312 people had been confirmed dead in the floods and mudslides. Given the nature of the disaster, it is likely that the toll will soar as authorities account for the missing, who may be buried under mud or may have been carried far away by floodwaters."
