Massive Landslide Buries Homes in Chongqing | Global News

A catastrophic landslide in Chongqing, China, buried over ten homes, killing at least eight and leaving thirty-four missing. A single rock the size of a building and 18,000 cubic meters of debris made rescue efforts incredibly difficult—compounded by torrential rain that drenched the area. Ten survivors were pulled from the rubble, and over 1,100 residents evacuated. Rescue teams are braving unstable terrain, planning to blast remaining rocks after the search. The government has pledged $4.4 million for recovery, while volunteers on motorcycles deliver aid in this mountainous, rural region where nature’s fury has left a trail of devastation.
