Colombia Mudslide

Canada's westernmost province British Columbia is bracing for another downpour that officials said Sunday could be as bad or worse than a torrent that caused major flooding and deadly mudslides two weeks ago.

Flooding and mudslides in central Colombia have killed at least eight people, the Red Cross said Wednesday, causing alarm in a country still recovering from mudslides that killed hundreds.

The giant mudslide that devastated the Colombian town of Mocoa last week killed 312 people including 102 children, the country's government said on Friday.

The number of people killed in southern Colombia's massive mudslides climbed to 290 on Wednesday, as officials investigated how the horrific disaster might have been prevented.

Devastating mudslides in the Colombian town of Mocoa killed at least 254 people, 43 of them children, President Juan Manuel Santos said Sunday, in yet another sharp rise in the death toll.

Flooding and mudslides in the Colombian city of Mocoa sent torrents of water and debris crashing onto houses in the early hours of Saturday morning, killing 254 people, injuring hundreds and sending terrified residents, some in their pajamas, scrambling to evacuate.

Mudslides have killed more than 200 people and left hundreds injured or missing after destroying homes in southern Colombia, the Red Cross aid group said Saturday in its latest toll.

Mudslides killed more than 150 people and left hundreds injured or missing after destroying homes in southern Colombia, officials said on Saturday.

Emergency crews worked through the night in a frantic bid to rescue some 145 people believed missing in a landslide in Colombia, with 13 people confirmed dead as of early on Monday.Rescuers used their bare hands to claw through the debris after a wall of mud buried or damaged at least 30 houses yesterday near Medellin, following the worst downpours...
