Mudslide Peru

Peruvians struggled on Sunday to cope with avalanches, mudslides and extensive flash flooding caused by torrential downpours, and forecasters predicted still more rain ahead, prolonging the country's woes.

A dramatic video showing a woman fighting her way out of a mudslide has emerged in Peru. The footage shows a woman making her way out of sludge and debris to avoid getting swept away by the powerful mudslide in Punta Hermosa, outside of the Peruvian capital of Lima.

At least 11 Peruvians were killed and 10 more are missing after a mudslide on Wednesday slammed into a small village in a mountainous jungle region, officials said.
