- A massive landslide is feared to have killed many after it struck six remote villages in Papua New Guinea, local officials and aid agencies said.
The landslide buried more than 100 homes after it struck at around 03:00 local time Friday (17:00 GMT Thursday) in the highlands of Enga, north of the island nation in the south-west Pacific.
It was not immediately clear how many people were trapped in the rubble and no casualties have been officially confirmed.
Enga governor Peter Ipatas told AFP news agency it was an "unprecedented natural disaster".
Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister James Marape said his government has sent disaster officials to the landslide site to "start relief work, recovery of bodies, and reconstruction of infrastructure".

So sad to hear this news
Apparently a lot of gold mining nearby.
Unregulated then? 🙄🙏🇬🇧
Because the entire island is highly tectonically active, that's why the gold is there.
Earthquake and natural disaster warning received already for this part of the location early this year 2024😮
हमें सिर्फ डरने की जरूरत नहीं अपना रवैया बदलने की जरूरत है और समझिए संकीर्ण मानसिकता से बाहर निकलने की आवश्यकता है
Ho no my home village 😭😭😭😭🇵🇬
Oh my God😮😮❤❤😊😊
I'm so sorry. Our prayers are with you. 🙏🏽
The chances of finding any suvivors is slim. People must take lesson from this disaster to never build near disaster prone sites.
Bata Samuel either that or the government killed our very own people just because of gold in that area.Marape has a lot of our people especially lo ples,their blood on his hands and their ghosts are crying out as witnesses to the greed.
😢🙏😭
So so sad......My condolences to the people of Papua New Guinea
🙏🙏🙏 John 14:6 🙏🙏🙏
CONSTANT HEAVEY RAIN FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS HAVE BEEN DISASTEROUS FOR THE ESPECIALLY THE HIGHLANDS REGIONS N SOME COASTAL PROVINCES.

So sad 😢😢 Many kids were being left alone with mothers only.😭😭😭😭😭😭
Very sorry
Papuanuegin should be helped
the soil became heavy laden
Lord Jesus, have mercy 🙏🙏🙏
the bbc is concerned with papuan lives? :O why can't we talk about the west side of the island? too much u.s. gold mining?
We are also experiencing significant environmental responsibility factors here in north America.......iz not good
This is so fkn unfair ..
❤
Can you remember vote against GAZA in UN
That has nothing to do with this.
@@mariakelly90210 they can feel about under the rubble
🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Australian government needs to get into PNG with aid very very quickly before the Chinese get in there offering help.
Chinese don't help😂
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
My child, don't forget that I am with you in all your difficulties, I never leave you! Just stay by my side...in prayer
| From Jesus to you |
Today, the Lord still tells you that He is there, even if you don't see it, even if you don't feel it. Jesus is your protector and support! Yes, Invoke Him, entrust your sorrows to Him, live EVERYTHING with Him! And you will see, his Peace will invade you...
God isn't real. You can suck it... 🖕🏻🖕🏼🖕🖕🏽🖕🏾🖕🏿
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😮😮
Climate change at its best 👌
SAME THING HAPPENED FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS, JUST NOW THERES SMART PHONES AND YT EVERYWHERE ALONG WITH MORE PPL LIVING ON EVERY INCH OF LAND, BUT THERES NO SHORTAGE OF CLIMATE EXPERTS.
PNG is highly tectonically active with thousands of quakes yearly, Just jump to conclusions while doing zero research why don't you.
I can see two strike-slip fault planes on the mountain in the background. Probable cause perhaps?
Climate change?
Wondering aahhh❤❤❤❤❤❤
The us Israel will send iron clad help ASAP, so no worries
How dare u,greta told thy world so,meny lost souls,no place to hid
Be quiet!
Did somebody plan this disaster, asking for a friend.
Of course not, what a horrible thing to say!
This is Horrific who is helping them omg 😱..if it was a Rich Mans condominium they would be thousands there helping ..its horrific because thry are just ordinary humble poor people ..omg omg omg 😱 the Goverment should have built proper homes in safe places Shame on them

Tf is that supposed to mean
Now One Began Too Comprehend Why It's So Important For Paupa Archipelagos Islands Civilians To Have Residential Communities Infrastructure And Visa Access On The Peninsula Known As Africa ! Most Of All A Full Proof Agenda Of Africa Nations City Districts Municipal Courthouse Judges That Sentence Individual To One or Two year local jail time I think needs to be flew to Paupa Archipelagos Islands Port Moresby Too Local Transitional Living Arrangement In Paupa Island Port Moresby " Finally diverse the many authentic Intuitive of reform of peninsula and the many archipelago Islands inhabited by a culture that's ready for different level of accessibility in minority nations and continents ! I'm 100 % sure about the transition of local municipal judgement of civilians under two years continental * this brings solidarity to the continent of Africa aviation sectors services and expand a preliminary new portion of municipal courts alternative solution * it's not vacation yet does represent positive clarity before a nation seeks independence from a single civilian or citizen by Meritocracy order miscomplacency by crime committed
What the hell are you talking about?
Along with most of the world! Netanayu is like Stalin and Mussolini!
The rocks look dry to me ! Please tell me this is not man made !!
Not that you had any to begin with.
Re-read.😮Tekaji
It depends on my,or anyone else's life experiences.Remember,we are an individual and, is the best as life is concerned.
Ok?😮
Your accent....you black woman on this BBC sounds bloody zimbabwean.
GOTCHA!😅
And that's important to this story why, exactly?
What????
Life,is all about....DOING AND HAPPENING IN TURNS.
IT'S YOURS NOW GUYS.😊
HARD,innit?!😊
What a mean spirited thing to say.
If there has been no rain lately then my next question is, have they pulled out a lot of trees in the area?
If so this can cause soil erosion and in time a landslide.
If economics demands you pull out lots of trees then you need to restore that soil afterwards with new plant life and soil organisms; in particular the fungal hyphae that acts like a glue and holds the soil together.
So so sad. Condolences from Solomon Islands. May our good Lord comfort you all at this time of sadness.
Thanks you my wan solwara brother ❤
Thank you. What are brothers for?
Thank you
Wasn't it the good Lord who causes all these things to happen? It says so in the bible.
It's been prophecied in the Bible that it will happen, but who says it is the LORD who is doing all this.
Have you not heard of these evil people warming up the earth and calling it climate change?
Read Rev 11:18
God says He will destroy them which destroy the earth.
So sad😢
😢
❤
So very very sad 😢. My sincerest condolences.
Very sad indeed.
What with so much rain everywhere we're going to see a great deal more landslips, eberywhere.
Even in UK.
Will suggest we'll see many multistory buildings collapse ad well as when it turns out the foundations prove not to have been deep enough.
I fear this is just the start.
😭
The Prime Minister of PNG has failed it's people as he is more concerned about staying as a Prime Minister due to the Vote of no confidence in him and is calling in other nations for aid, assistance and help. He has failed his people, where as other Nations are assisting and the people of PNG are thanking these other nations for the help and assistance as their own PM has failed them. Prayers for all the people who have lost loved ones, homes, everything and to all those other nations who are assisting as well. This area is very remote in the high lands and very hard to get to, as the landslide came down over the main road. God Bless all the clans and villages and people who lost family and need urgent help and to relocate them to safer areas. Shame on the Prime Minister JM, and he says he is a Christian. Guess not by his lack of action to his people and his country. Also there is a mine not far and this could have some impact underground as well to the landslide, as well as heavy rainfalls.
Png must be ready to be the first to attend to disasters and prepar for such
😢
