Thousands Feared Buried in Devastating Papua New Guinea Landslide

Satellite images have revealed the extensive damage from a landslide in Papua New Guinea's Enga province, which buried an estimated 2,000 people and prompted thousands more to evacuate due to fears of a second landslide. Relief efforts are hampered by the remote location and unstable conditions, with ongoing rockfalls and debris. A state of emergency has been declared, and international aid is being mobilized, though access is challenging. The disaster has also destroyed vital infrastructure, exacerbating the economic impact on the affected communities.
