A landslide in Papua New Guinea is believed to have caused at least 670 deaths, with search-and-rescue efforts hindered by challenging conditions. Many survivors have fled their homes, leaving over 250 houses abandoned and around 1,250 people displaced. The area affected, Enga Province, is densely populated and has a young population, raising concerns about potential child fatalities. The local government has provided aid to some survivors, but difficulties in distribution persist due to ongoing landslides and rockfalls. In addition, tribal clashes in the region have heightened safety concerns. The landslide occurred in the early hours of Friday, burying homes and blocking a major highway with large boulders.
